Thoughts on this play?


ps: I normally dont bet so much for a continuation bet, but this time I did .. My thinking was that if I had rockets or something i'd bet more than normaly with the flush draw anyway...

You know your opp better than we do. I'd rather make this play with more chips though. A loose caller may take you up there with a good K. He is getting better than 5:3.

Till this hand, I thought he wouldnt have any trouble folding...

My though was that he would probally think that I have AA/KK/AK after the PFR and the large flop raise and now going all in on the turn.

I figured he either was on the draw or had a weak king.

Here is the rest of the hand...

stankone calls [$37].
** Dealing River ** [ 8d ]
Laeelin shows [ Ah, Th ] a pair of eights.
stankone shows [ Qh, Jh ] a pair of eights.
Laeelin wins $100.50 from the main pot with a pair of eights with ace kicker.

I read what he had right, but missread his folding ability

I was stunned when I still won the hand...

I think a good opponent or a bad opponent calls here with a king. The bad ones because they don't know better, and the good ones because they would have way too much experince to let this bluff slide.

Only the players in between would fold. I mean the ones that are just learning how to lay down to aggression from a better hand. These are the people who tend to be more weak tight until they develop reads, and might get scared off by this all in.
It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

You have to consider AA, AK, trips, KQ and even KJh won't fold to this very often if you have been playing loose or very aggressive post flop. It's a ballsy play, I'll give you that.
