Title: Re: mtt, i slowplay...b/f river right? Post by: Rupert on February 27, 2009, 05:49:34 AM bet/folds standard obv. u get value from mid pairs a lot - he might decide to turn these into a bluff for w/e reason - his line rep's a ten/33/44/sometimes a flush i guess but i'm not sure what high cards he decided to float the flop with so flush is pretty unlikely. so readless ya i'd bet/fold. i'd say c/c is pretty bad fwiw - he's not really gonna value bet any small/medium pair here but he will pretty frequently call a river bet with them
Title: Re: mtt, i slowplay...b/f river right? Post by: MANTIS01 on February 27, 2009, 11:33:01 AM Nice calls pre and flop....but surely those smooth calls set up a turn raise no?

I don't see how he can't be bluffing here ever. You have slow-played your hand and on the river the board is looking incredibly scary. He has no reason to think you have the flush or a house (which you don't). It seems like a great spot to bluff considering there are 7,000 chips in the middle to be won. Looking at it from villains perspective he is likely to have you on a pocket pair or a big ace so I think the river push here is a good play. Axss, QQ or even 44 look more likely tho.... I would tend to check-call the river here as there isn't much you beat that calls on the end but you will pick up extra value from bluffs. Title: Re: mtt, i slowplay...b/f river right? Post by: daviebhoy on February 27, 2009, 04:30:23 PM he's not really gonna value bet any small/medium pair here but he will pretty frequently call a river bet with them You have to weigh this up with the times he has nothing and bets, the times he has flush or house where you lose the minimum and the times you get bluffed off the best hand by bet-folding. If opponent is weak-passive then bet folding is fine but against anyone half-decent then id prefer check-call. Title: Re: mtt, i slowplay...b/f river right?

Primarily i think c/c is bad because he bets all beeter hands and gets to showdown with worse, JJ/99/AQ etc (fwiw i think he checks back turn w AQ too). my image is tag, im chipleader in the comp. shown down like AK twice and got caught making a cr bluff and had to fold. pretty solid though. river is a bet fold yeah? like he's never bluffing right?

My hand looks a lot like a mid pp a lot, apart from the river bet of course, genuinely i rarely see players making huge moves on the river on such polar boards on full tilt, especially giving hero 2:1, would appreciate rooks/clamfish/flushies input. b/f > c/c imo Title: Re: mtt, i slowplay...b/f river right?

Title: Re: mtt, i slowplay...b/f river right? Post by: action man on February 28, 2009, 11:03:12 PM there arent many hands that value bet the river here that you beat, if you check to him AQ/QK or complete air. I think your river bet is way too big. Your line looks a lot like a ten, so hands you are hoping call you, i.e mid pairs/Queens/JJ/ might not do in view of your line and your strong river bet. The size of your bet also makes it tougher for him to bluff here, which is what i think you might have been thinking. I bet 2k ish on the river and fold to the shove as i dont think he's bluffing here 99% of the time. Id do a quick OPR. If he's god damn afwul, i may c/c if he's anywhere near +roi then i bet2k/fold.
Even though if u bet 2k he could bluff jam the river with more FE than if you bet 3300, the board texture and your check call of the flop negate the former.

3bet pre. That said I dont hate flatting pre but i definately raise the flop, As played to the river.. Bet/fold is optimal imo 1500-2kish Title: Re: mtt, i slowplay...b/f river right?

Bet/fold is optimal imo 1500-2kish cheers for input neverbluff, iv only recently got back into donkaments again. could you expend this point please and give reasoning. I would have though we have the vast majority of his range locked to between 2 and 3 outs. We dont let him continue to bluff/barrel "scarecards" or value cut himself with worse later on if we cr/we just polarise our range to bluffs/biggish made hands. I doubt hes gonna level himself and rebluff and i doubt hes gonna make thin calldowns.......... Title: Re: mtt, i slowplay...b/f river right?

That's the thing though Alex people do make the flop 3 bet on dry boards like that these days, its far more common than you think. Title: Re: mtt, i slowplay...b/f river right? Post by: StuartHopkin on March 04, 2009, 08:56:22 AM What hands are we putting him on to fold at the end?
Does he really check behind on the turn if he has a set? You have shown an interest when calling on the flop. Surely he doesnt try to disguise his hand on the turn. So if thats the case are we saying he has floated the flop with a backdoor flush? Obv not saying any of this is correct, more looking for correction from trigg/flushy and mr martin on the way ive been thinking hands through. |
