Title: Aggressive play with mediocre hand, played it wrong?
Post by: Benny Brox on April 16, 2008, 06:18:38 PM
$0.10/$0.25 NL Cash - 9 handed

Hero - $20.95
Villain - $18.70 - PT is 15/15/4 over just 38 hands and no notes on him.

All fold to button who raises to $0.75

We are in BB and (virtually) look down at  Ahrt Td so I re-pop to $2 and button calls

Flop -  Kh Th 3s - Pot = $4.10

I CB with $2.50 and again a flat call

Turn -  Ad - Pot = $9.10

I bet $8 and villain pushes all-in for $14.95

So it's $7 to call into a pot of $32 so getting favourable odds. I wasn't going to go far with the hand just one CB if I hit and then slow down if looked up but a nice looking turn card came down.

Have I done anything wrong here, easy call on the end? Raise it more pre? OOP and with no player read should I have played it less aggressively? Your comments would be appreciated.

9-handed 3betting oop with A10s is pretty loose. I like it though. I also think your street play is good. NH.

Thanks Alex, I like to play aggressively against standard bets and raises but I'm calming down now at this level cos it's losing me money. I called the river and he turns over KK for trips.
