blind battle QJ

    Default blind battle QJ

    25NL.

    villain is 25/18/2.6

    i'm thinking he likes his hand based on his turn bet size. it's either a strong draw or JT, KJ AJ, and possible over pair.

    comments.

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (6 handed) Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    CO ($63.60)
    Button ($67.50)
    SB ($12.25)
    Hero ($32.55)
    UTG ($63.55)
    MP ($25)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with J, Q.
    4 folds, SB raises to $0.75, Hero calls $0.50.

    Flop: ($1.60) J, T, 3 (2 players)
    SB bets $1.5, Hero calls $1.50.

    Turn: ($4.60) 6 (2 players)
    SB bets $3.75, Hero ???

    he's not to deep... is that a factor for you?

    yup thats what i did.

    i hope no one takes this the wrong way...

    but you guys are hilarious. this guy had AJ and i sucked out with a river Q.

    i don't get why you more experienced guys... playing at higher levels RARELY say fold... or RARELY ever put people on the hand they are on. maybe it's cuz i'm always posting hands where i'm behind and so that just makes it biased and unfair.

    please, no disrespect intended. i'm a noob.

    I don't fold good hands to aggressive players in spots where our ranges are wide.

    that makes sense. his turn bet could be aggression with a draw.

    some of these hands and your comments have to be illustrating the difference between low buy ins and higher buy ins.
    guys he's just looking to complain about taking coolers/beats

    he'll continue to be the type of poker player we all love, the one that isn't any good but thinks he is, and slowly donates to the regulars.

    Its probably because you only pay attention to the hands where you get beat, rather than looking at all hands trying to work out if you played them right or not.

    If you only look at your losing (or suckout) hands then of course you'll conclude you should fold more.

    Also, for this hand in particular, we call (or push) here, because thats our plan PF. If we're not going to continue on this board, we should just fold PF. We call with QJ because its ahead of buttons stealing range and we think we can get value from him when we hit.

    I like to re-steal a lot post-flop as well.

    Yeah, that too, but this is largely our money flop is my point. If we wont continue here, we probably should either fold PF, or call with almost ATC if we're only after miracle flops.
