Title: GUKPT Cov - Hand 1
Post by: Blatch on May 23, 2010, 05:19:41 PM
My starting table was very soft and were only 2 levels in.  Im in BB playing around 22k, from 15k stack.

UTG opens to 600 (playing 18k).  Bad player, doesnt seem to understand betting sizes or ranges at all but understands his hand and how to bet it.  Mid position flats (playing 14k, had been the most active player at table but clearly had a bit of game about it, and I make up in the BB with  6d 7h.

Flop brings  Qh Td  6h  I check first to act, UTG c-bets 600.  He had c-bet his pre flop raise amount twice before.  Once being with two overs and flush draw and once being with A high.  MP flats too, which got me thinking.  I decided to flat as potentially could be winning and a lot of implied with UTG.

Turn was an ok  7c but obv would have prefered another 6 ;)

UTG again bets 600 and MP calls. 

Do most people check raise here?  Confident we have the best hand now?

I decided to c/r to 1925 and both flatted again.  Now im certain MP has the flush draw and UTG has something like KQ, QJ or maybe nut flush draw (this only based on a hand he played earlier).

River is a brick,   4s.

Both check to me, is this a good enough spot to value bet?  Too thin to get called by worse?  If we do value bet how much?

Pot is now 9,475.

Fold pre, fold the flop, raise bigger on the turn, say ~2850, bet 63% of the pot on river.

Fold pre?

After the hand I thought the call was a bit dodgy considering the MP player was involved.

Think the flop call is more questionable

Agree with this but deffo not passing pre, this deep, after a good start, against a donk who plays his hands face up and doesnt pass.

the main reason most players are bad is because they play too many hands

Dont usually use the old +1 option but this is a good time for it.

If for some reason i do find myself in a hand oop with 67os, calling what in level 2 would be a 6x raise, surely this is a pretty terrible flop to over peel.

Hitting 2 pair is never gonna flood you with confidence, especially if it comes a red. Also the benefit of playing connector sort of hands are that if you get a flop around your hand such as  3 5 6 there are lots of cards to come which make it easy for you to turn your hand into a bruffffff. All the cards that connect this board on the turn and river probably fill opponents hands or make them 'unfoldable' 2 pair combos or broadway, sets etc.

Anyway, as played, its a deffo value bet if check to you in position, but seeing as your big blind...... still value bet as i think most/ all better hands protect on the turn, but saying that i prob try to give tickets to value town out too thinly.

Where do u get 6x from?

I would never flat a 6x raise here in the spot.

Its 600 to call and I have 200 out there already.

Oh I see, misread it. Hmmmm yeh i probably call pre then if I percieved the other players as weak but still dont call the flop bet for previous reasons.

Oh and LOL at your other hand, OBVIOUSLY you just flop the nuts, was gonna post on that hand aswell but everyones beat me to it and dont wanna be a +1er on every thread!
