I'm torn on whether or not I'm getting value towned here the vast majority of the time or he's trying to get away with a cheap bluff here most of the time. I only need 25% OTT and 21% OTR.

If we start with 99+, ATs+, AJo+, KQ for cbetting river flop is a call.

To the turn his sizing makes me want to discount JJ+ somewhat but this could be way off.

If he value bets 99+ on the river he only needs to have 7 combos of AK bluffs to make this a call. Am I leveling myself here?

I am 3betting to .80 PF and leading the flop with a PSB on this board if he calls pf. Shutting down PF if he re-raises and shutting down if he calls/raises the flop psb. As played you have no idea where you are at. I don't see him 3 barreling with air but his range from CO is so broad i am calling three streets as played. I think we will see T9s, A9o, A9s etc a fair amount of time.

I'm probably playing it the same. Given stacks I think flatting pre is fine.

first he is way wider for a flob cbet imo...second how do you figure you only need 21% on the turn? There is the threat of a future bet so its not just a simple equity vs pot odds comparison


pre is interesting, i think 3betting for value is a possibility...griffey can you explain what you would do with diff stack sizes.

I think that you played very well. I don't think that he has pocket pair like JJ or something. Maybe he has only AK or AQ and he has to bluff you. For me maybe it would be better and if you re-raised on the flop or on the turn. However, you plaed well and if I was on your place I will played the same.

more concerning stat is heros 75/0 over 8 hands , are you limping in a lot or calling raisies?

idk, I think I would've raise after the flop or turn just to see what the player would do, see if the player will either bet,call, or fold. I'll be too afraid the player might catch a over card to call all the way down.

Whoops, those stats were meant for UTG!
