this is sooo sick,man. In the heat of the moment, I'd probably bet much more on this drawy turn, shove over and close my eyes. Hmmm, I just cant remember how many times i run dogshit like this in some similar set over set spots. However, i still think that a 14/11/3 is capable of c/ring with other worse hands (22, KdQd,KdJd, AcKc, ATs or other combo draws) especially when your turn bet is so small. As played, i call and dont feel happy at all. If a 10/8/2 nit c/r me on the turn, i might find the fold button quickly.

I'd fold and thank him for taking the only line that could make you do so

I probably fold?! It matters whether he opens 22-55 UTG; but most people don't.
however, he probably plays TT this way every time
not sure about AA I'd say half of the time he'd fire turn, but c/r is good when you expect people to float with their flush draws instead of checking them back

this is AT sometimes on the turn, on the river about never, that would be turning his hand into a bluff, when he could c/c since both flush draws missed

so his value range is heavily weighed towards AA/TT
he can definitely bluff a picked up flush draw, but most people just barrel those instead of c/ring

Really? Are we putting him on AA only? He bets TT like that? Man, I'm NEVER good enough to put a guy on only AA or TT. I know we're deep but those are the only two hands that beat us and there are exactly 6 hand combos that beat us. I mean, damn...

It's online full ring and he raised UTG. That narrows his holdings a lot because he can't be raising with a wide range or he will run into too many hands and can't count on a lot of mistake equity from his opponents. (In a softer/looser game he could play a wider range profitably even from UTG, but still shouldn't get too crazy.)

The game isn't soft enough to play much more than a core range like:
99+, AQ+, KQs
with a rare other hand in mixed in.

I really need to slow things down when the pots are deep and his hand is really staring me in the face sometimes. I can stack off with TT without feeling too bad cuz he can do this with 88.. but if I'm holding 88, I'm basically catching a bluff for a 150bb bet on the river.

My biggest pot lost online so far =[

my biggest loss online is $600 in FR 1/2NL. AA Top set with nuts flush + straight redraw on the turn facing c/r all-in. Last month I stacked off with mid and bottom sets 6 times right on the flop and never hit quads. Fucking retarded FR games.
