I just made this hand up off the top of my head. I'm borderline drunk right now, so this may be a pretty shit post but oh well, maybe it will at least get people thinking about some (?) things. Maybe someone will post something ridiculously absurd (hey like me) and get flamed for it and then learn something. Maybe some interesting concepts will brew into discussoin. (fwiw I don't know what exactly I'm trying to touch on here but w/e) Micro grinders, give your thoughts and reasoning behind your turn action.

Villain is a smart, tricky, thinking regular capable of making moves (bluff @ weakness, make good laydowns etc). He's an excellent hand reader, he's not afraid to get it in light if he needs to. He is able to accurately put villains on ranges and act accordingly. Assume no specific reads. This is all the information you have, screw your HUD.


You are dealt: :Ts: :Tc: in the CO, 9 handed, 100BB stacks. There is a limper in MP1 and you open for 5BB's.


Villain is in the Big Blind and he calls your raise, the limper folds:


We see a flop heads up with the Big Blind: (12BB) Villain checks and we pot it up for 12BB and get called.


Now the turn: (36BB) :Jd: Villain checks to us again, Hero? (83BB behind)



gogogo! explanations people!

Also, does your decision change if you're holding :Qs: :Qc: instead? If so why? Explain which concepts/thoughts you consider your action to be based on etc.


Edit: Now what if the turn is the :Jc: rather than the diamond. Does this alter your turn decision?
