    His 3-betting range preflop seems literally to be every playable hand facing a raise since I never saw him call once preflop. I check-raised the flop for value (and a little bit of a tilt after...
  3. Possibly an overplay, but maybe a decent semi-bluff.

    Villain is an annoying player whose game is based on 3-betting preflop. He's 3-bet me a bunch of times and I've almost always folded; so far not much of an idea as to how he plays postflop. I...

    "if villain folds 95% of the time, and the remaining 5% of his range is A5 and A3"

    He's almost never going to have A-3 after taking this line. Most of the time he's going to have a strangely...

    Your reasoning for checking behind on the river is sort of bogus. Even if he's folding 95% of the time that you bet, that doesn't mean you shouldn't bet what's the effective nuts in this situation....

    You believe he's calling the flop with pocket pairs, then claim you were planning on check-folding the turn, and then also rationalize your turn call by saying he could've been floating the flop. If...

    Critique my line.

    From a $10/$20 8-game table. Don't know this guy, but I did see him make an incredibly bad river value raise in 2-7 triple draw, so he seems to be on the spewy side.

    Anyways, he's obviously...

    The other posts seem good except the suggestion that it's mandatory to raise this hand preflop. Just calling is perfectly fine.

    I think just calling the flop is acceptable unless your opponents...

    His hand isn't face up. He has nut hearts and some straight possibilities that aren't obvious. It's not like he's 4-betting A-A-2-7 here. Besides, he gives someone the chance to stack off preflop...

    So you're saying the player with A-A-T-Q *does not* have the choice which flops they stack off on? I thought that in poker you can choose whether or not you bet when it's checked to you.

    Nevermind. I forgot you don't take advice.

    You are ignoring the 3rd player (seat 6) both in the simulation and in the decision on 3rd, why is that ?[/quote]

    Just call 3rd street when the other guy reraises. You're at best only a small favorite (see simulations below), and you don't want to define your downcards. Better is to call and put the thought in...

    Assuming he only had aces (which seems like a fair assumption) this is an easy fold for Barry. His opponent's call on 5th is a pretty strong play against Barry's board, and practically guarantees he...

    I would bet / fold unless the raise is small. Your hand is probably best and you charge flush draw / pair and straight draw combinations. Always needing the nuts to continue betting in these spots...

    Nut flush draws don't have a lot of implied value in this game since people usually play cautiously with non-nut flushes, so I agree with spenda that you should be folding the turn unless you plan on...
  18. Top set on river with possible straights on board.

    This is from an 8-game table. My opponent has seemed passive / fishy in general, but I don't know too much about how he plays PLO specifically. His river bet size into two opponents looks like a...

    My first impression was to 3-bet 4th street and get heads-up against Seat 2, but after thinking about it for a minute I think calling is probably best. His 4th street play almost always means he has...

    Calling and folding the river unimproved is a viable play, as you'll almost never be folding the best hand. You're hoping to get free show down somehow and / or win the pot (possibly by sucking out)...

    Hmm, this nets you a smallish half pot when he folds a K, but otherwise either gains nothing or loses a stack. I have a hard time believing this is a good play.
