Temporary Nuts
.10/.25 NL

Villain has been very aggressive in the past 2 orbits and has raised 5 out of 8 flops he's seen.

folds around to the sb, which I'm sitting in, I complete with Q-9 spades, he min raises to 50 cents, I call again.

Effective stacks are $25.00, he has me covered slightly.

Pot $1.00

Flop: Qh Qc 3d

I check, he bets $1.00, I raise to $3.00 total, he calls

Pot $7.00

Turn 8c

I check, he bets $5.00, I minraise to $10.00, he shoves, I call

Thoughts? Am I being over fancy or is this a smart enough play against an aggro?

Yeah, but don't bitch when he rolls over QJ.

ZOMG HE HAD QQ H4><0|2z!!!

I don't do disguised bad beat posts... just wanted to know if I was getting too cute with the hand is all. I guess not.

No, you didn't get cute at all. Villain can see both your raise and the two queens on the board. Your hand is realtively transparent.

the flop is a spot where you can get tricky here. based on your read of villain, i may just check/call, but your play is fine. if he had a tighter pf image, i might donk lead.

UGGO. just terrible.

i can't comment on this since the turn check is so bad. my instinct tells me no good.

No, you min-raised and got the shove.
The way this played out, I expect to see a smaller Q here a lot, and ocassionally someone underfull.

your goal is to get as much money in the possible. you're just not gonna fold trips in a blind on blind battle against a laggy player for less than 100bs w/o a really strong read. when you check/raise the flop you either have a Q or total air. reasonable players will check behind any turn if they don't have the Q beat.


when they check behind on the turn, it becomes impossible to get their stack!


make sure you understand that last sentence.

FWIW he had K-Jo
