    Still on that feckin' island!

    Default Quad 7s - Could I Have Got More Value Here

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (6 handed) - PokerStars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    Villain is 23/15/3 after 73 hands; kinda passive post-flop so far

    UTG ($2.51)
    MP ($8.11)
    Hero (CO) ($15.10)
    Button ($12.51)
    SB ($5.16)
    BB ($5)

    Preflop: Hero is CO with 7, 7
    UTG calls $0.05, MP bets $0.20, Hero calls $0.20, 3 folds, UTG calls $0.15

    Flop: ($0.67) 9, 7, 7 (3 players)
    UTG checks, MP bets $0.45, Hero calls $0.45, 1 fold

    I called here as I wanted him to lead Turn

    Turn: ($1.57) K (2 players)
    MP checks, Hero bets $1, MP calls $1

    No luck. So...sizing here? I want to keep him in the hand LDO

    River: ($3.57) 5 (2 players)
    MP checks, Hero ???

    Total pot: $3.57 | Rake: $0.17

    Don't expect this guy to lead the turn often. Multiway, I think flatting flop is OK but I'd probably raise.

    Villain mostly has 2nd pair to the board or A high, so you want to bet something that gets called by 2nd pair. I would default to half pot or less, but it depends on what he thinks of you. If you want to bet $3, bet $2.8. A million supermarkets can't be wrong.
    It's also a fun spot to overbet with your floats and nut hands because villains range is capped and he sets himself up for a guessing game on the river. You don't really want or need a bluffing range there at lolNL tho, so forget what I said.

    Good point.



    I just want to add that I think $3 is bad in general, because 3.3 will get called with pretty much the same range, and 2.9 will get called with a wider range. I'm pretty sure I'm right on this, but I have nothing to back it up with other than a wikipedia link to a related subject with almost no useful information:

    $2.50 on river - nh - think about villain's river range and what sizing it can call.

    Maybe even less given top of his range is like QQ.

    If he's gonna call $2.80 wouldn't he call $3.10?

    If he calls $3.10 wouldn't he call $3.40?

    Repeat a lot of times.

    Shit we should just shove.....

    Varies from villain to villain but my point I guess is that we could argue that for any bet size without really knowing where this villains inflection point is. Just gotta make a good estimate.

    I like anything from 1.5-2$. I also might bet some stupidly small amount like 1.2$ to induce a raise with weaker hands.

    i agree that more than $2.5 is too much here. we're basically only getting value from TT-QQ, and even some parts of that range may fold some non-zero %. i probably go $2.1

    This seems like a really easy, yank out ethernet cable/switch off wireless and email stars requesting the contents of the pot + 2bbs.

    I think this is the best option. I believe he would flat call a min-raise and probably would c/c the turn still. This means you could probably get away with a bigger bet, more than $2.50, on the flop. My range on villian would be AQ+, 88+, and Ax.

    ????????? i maybe drunk but ya what?

    I think if he min raised to $.90 on the flop then on the turn when he checks you could bet around $1.50 to bring the pot up to $5.47, if he calls. Then on the river you can bet $3 to $3.50 without him folding some pp's since he has already invested so much. I don't know, maybe I am the one drunk, kickass. xD
