4-bet spew wars vs Aggro Reg.

Results 1 to 7 of 7
  1. #1

    Default 4-bet spew wars vs Aggro Reg.

    1. Villain runs 23/19 folds to 3 bets 63% and has 4 bet before a few times over 500 hands. I felt like he was light here extremely often given that I'm an aggro 3 bettor from the BU and his ATS is like 30%.

    Stacks:
    UTG VikingNorway ($51.75)
    CO Eazy83 ($56.05)
    BTN Hero ($50)
    SB susamaus ($75.20)
    BB pythonn ($50)

    Pre-Flop: ($0.75, 5 players) Hero is BTN
    1 fold, Eazy83 raises to $1.50, Hero raises to $5, 2 folds, Eazy83 raises to $12, Hero goes all-in $50

    2. Same guy maybe 20 hands later. I don't think he's flatting very often at all with [QQ+, AK] as the opener is 28/25. He expects me to be very light in this spot based on what I've seen so this could even be a bluff. Failing that, I felt like I was in decent shape vs like TT, JJ , AQ etc that he might felt. Is this too spewy?

    I think these are both fine. As long as you have reads that he's capable of 4bet bluffing, then I like the first hand.

    Second hand is fine, you're almost always flipping here.

    1) id only play it like this vs someone that 4bets a lot
    2)well if you don't think he can have AK, QQ+.. then that pretty much answers it.

    make sure you have good reads for hand 1... its fine if hes 4betting a ton, but not if he happened to 4bet 4 times recently because he may have well had good hands

    hand 2... depending what happened on hand 1 he may have just owned you real nice

    I think this is more relevant if Eazy83 was the opener in hand 2, moreso than the cold caller. I'd definitely say if he was opener, we'd need to know what happened in hand 1 to say if this is good.

    I should probably have mentioned the outcome of hand 1 since I guess it's at least a little bit relevant. He snapped with AK therefore saw I'd 5-bet jammed 55. I think this leads him to think my squeeze is light a lot since I probably look like a maniac to him. I don't think I look so much like a psycho that he'd flat QQ+ AK jus to try to induce a squueze from me though, he'd only seen me squeezing in LP wars so far. I don't feel like I'm getting owned very often here in hand 2, think it's more likely he's just suspcious of my squeeze when he sees it and back raising a medium/strong hand or spazzing out to try to get a fold.

    IF anything, he's just getting in a wider range of pairs now.
