5NLZ - NFD JJ77 board

Results 1 to 7 of 7
  1. #1

    Default 5NLZ - NFD JJ77 board

    Stacks:
    UTG ($5) 100bb
    UTG+1 ($3.97) 79bb
    CO ($2.53) 51bb
    BTN ($5.90) 118bb
    SB ($4.83) 97bb
    Hero (BB) ($9.81) 196bb

    Pre-Flop: ($0.07, 6 players) Hero is BB A 10
    4 folds, SB raises to $0.15, Hero calls $0.10

    Flop: J 7 J ($0.30, 2 players)
    SB bets $0.15, Hero calls $0.15

    Turn: 7 ($0.60, 2 players)
    SB bets $0.30, Hero calls $0.30

    River: 8 ($1.20, 2 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $0.70

    What do we think? Not 100% sure on the turn call although he should definitely be value betting wider than 7x & jx obviously and we can bluff missed rivers if he gives up, not 100% sure whether calling to call a bet on a spade river would be a good idea though.

    In reality I'm not sure how much Jx I get to the river with taking this line, I do have a fair bit of 7x I'd be value betting for definite though.

    Never read any stickies or announcements
    Why? Just check it back, you have plenty of showdown value. You might get him off a chop but it's doubtful you are going to get him to fold a better 2 pair than jacks and sevens. You're almost never going to get a call from worse, although you might get c/r'd off your hand.

    Tbh I think I do fold out A high pretty much all of the time, 99 & TT at least some of the time and I think I rarely ever get bluff raised but that's beside the point really. I think checking back is better I just felt like this was a spot where we could get some folds and just made my bluffing range too wide.

    As played I would check the river as previously stated. I am not great at cash games but what do you guys think about raising to $.40 on the flop? I think we could take the pot down right there a lot of the time and if he does have a jack he is likely to raise due to the flush draw on the board which we could easily fold too.

    With spades bricking I don't think you're getting many folds here, just check it back.

    Yeah, no reason to bet the river, you can kinda only get called with a full house, or an ace (and you would just chop it up anyways).

    If you are deciding to play aggressive, I wouldn't mind raising on the turn, being prepared to fold to a 3 bet. They kinda can't call a turn raise without a full house.

    Why not raise flop?
    All posts are just my own opinion about a hand or a general situation... not advices on how you should play...
