Was waiting for my MC raid to start up and saw a new FTR member at the table, so I crashed the party for a few min. No reads on this guy though. Just sat down and been card dead.

MP2 ($78.10)
CO ($100)
Button ($56.35)
SB ($84.20)
BB ($115.50)
UTG ($73.30)
Fnord ($105.25)
MP1 ($98.50)

Preflop: Fnord is UTG+1 with A, K. CO posts a blind of $1.
1 fold, Fnord raises to $4, 5 folds, BB calls $3.

Flop: ($9.50) J, Q, 8 (2 players)
BB checks, Fnord bets $6, BB calls $6.

Turn: ($21.50) T (2 players)
BB bets $1, Fnord raises to $20, BB raises to $39, Fnord calls $19.

River: ($99.50) Q (2 players)
BB bets $1, Fnord calls $1.

Final Pot: $101.50

I like the river call. Its a crying call, but I think you are winning this more than 1% of the time.

j/k

I probably would have played this identically. You can't fold to 19 more dollars on the turn, and there no sense in raising the river consider no hands beat you that would call.

You are probably beat here a significant percentage of the time though.

Hmmm not too sure, weird $1 bet with re-raise. I'd probably call here too.

I am guessing there are always plenty of hands that beat you that like to call raises.

No one pushes the turn with the nut straight w/ nut flush re-draw?

If the river blanks and he bets $1 again, do we raise for value?

He's not the opponent in this hand.

For what it's worth, I think he's a VERY strong sTAgg.

He's a great addition to FTR. I sure hope he hangs around.

This $1 bet thingie is something I've been seeing from a few players on FullTilt, usually with a made hand. I'm assuming the tactic is to show ridiculous weakness in the hope that you'll come over the top. Made frush is my guess, although he's worried about the ace. Turn push might take it, but it's dicey. I don't raise the river because of the flush.
