I know this last hand made no sense... its because i was planning on giving up on the river, and then a timing tell made me pretty sure he had a missed draw.

Most of the time he was getting his great hands in on the turn taking the line he took. Of course sometimes this is a T with maybe a weakish kicker or strong kicker, and sometimes its something like top set or JJ.
Considering it most of the hands he plays hes not confident hes ahead, when i checked the river intending to give up because of an aggroish image, he nearly instantly bets 2/3rds pot. I thought that with a medium hand here he actually would really have to consider whether to bet or not, but he doesnt. So I think it's either top set or a missed draw. Since there's more combos of missed draws i decide to raise.

I cant tell if you were being sarcastic but it made me LOL.
Guys the secret to poker is to use bold, aggressive plays and put opponents to decisions for all their chips.

First part was a joke. Second super super serial.
I'm just really bad at shortstacking, I guess. From the looks of my results to date, I'm bad at everything but LAG. Weird.

That play by opp could actually mean he's potentially a very good player.

I think wufwugy's range is a lot of A high, and someone whos capable of vbetting that thin is pretty scary.
However, you're right, the play really sucked, but the thought process seemed good.

what is your reasoning here? What does he have that you want to push him off that beats you and bets the river and will fold?

he put me on a certain range after flop c/r and turn c/c
he is above average player so he is value betting strong Qx hands here, because it thinks it beats my calling range
the river c/r is so small he should think that i think hesnot folding, so he should fold hands as strong as AA here, because afterall, why would i bluff with such a small ber
ofc after showing the a8 here i cant pull too many more of these for the rest of the session

I like his line if he has AQ, but it's obviously bad against you

Sorry I didn't see page 2 of this thread.
Yes the river is not very hard to figure out - a reasonable attack on what seems to be thin value, but what is strange here is of course the TURN!!!???

I think your on a few levels too low. Wasicka isnt expecting zook to bluff in this spot.
