QQ, spazzy fish, King on the river

Results 1 to 9 of 9
  1. #1

    Default QQ, spazzy fish, King on the river

    SB ($329.79)
    Hero (BB) ($125.05)
    Button ($61.05)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with Q, Q
    1 fold, SB bets $1.80, Hero calls $1.30

    Flop: ($3.90) 4, 7, 5 (2 players)
    SB bets $2.60, Hero calls $2.60

    Turn: ($9.10) 9 (2 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $4, SB raises to $15.68, Hero calls $11.68

    River: ($40.46) K (2 players)
    SB bets $19.48, Hero ???


    Villain is 40/29 over 270 hands, has opened the SB 40% over the sample, has been barrelling and spazzing quite a bit, hence flatting preflop to try and get him to barrel off, turn sizing was also hoping for a spazz-raise.

    Once I've decided to get him to spazz, should I be calling the river?

    Yeah, I actually thought about that myself before posting. I guess my concern there was that I expected to only get called by better most of the time, and if I call the turn I can hope for a desperation bluff on the river, but I guess there are a lot of uncomfortable rivers for me, but that also means tons of rivers he can bluff - or am I looking at this all wrong?

    i'm torn on call vs raise flop.
    On the turn there are a lot of draws that you are close to giving direct odds to with that turn sizing, and facing a turn check-raise wouldn't be great well over 200bb deep. Shoving turn would be pretty awful. River is a fold as played.

    is that referring to my advice?
    if so, is there anything specific in that advice that you think is bad?

    The flush draw got there, but we still beat 5x and a bunch of other 1 pair things.

    I would look him up given our read of the turn action.
