Started playing JUSTINSKS HU 250bb deep at a 2nl table. Josh joined and our big pots attracted teh feesh. I minraise preflop to mix up my min-raising hands, and call the raise because I feel I can take most pots away from josh because i think he becomes less aggressive when there's someone behind him. A few hands ago I saw the villain shove with a K high FD he picked up on the turn, so I think he's playing all of his draws pretty aggressively. I decide to call thinking Josh will shut down 3 handed unless he has a monster draw/set. I don't really see Villain betting any of his range on the turn; because most of the hands he's leading out here he would have raised the flop (I perceive him as somewhat of a thinking player, and I think he would raise 2 pair/a set 3 handed on that wet flop). WHAT DO I DO ON THE RIVER LOL??

JR9477 is an unknown quantity at this point
Fold Pre, fold when 3bet, fold flop, fold turn, check behind river as played



Edit:This wasn't the hand I thought we were talking about. (You should have inferred that by my comments).

if you're gonna continue past flop I would prefer raising

Shove river.









lol jk.....Open Fold Pre. Most, if not all, of your money at 2NL will be coming from showdowns where villains called you too light. If you have reads on villain and think his capable of folding medium strength hands, you need to be raising and using the advantage of playing a deep table. Size your bets right so that you can shove river with an amount that has FE.

by the way, the correct term is "IRC Noobs" because mIRC is the name of an IRC client program. It's like if I called the entire interwebs "Firefox".

shove river seems alright.

we can certainly rep Tx if we're never folding to 3bets and it makes sense for hero to have played it like this up to this point.
