Title: Re: Check it down or Valuetown? Post by: GreekStein on June 15, 2010, 12:51:33 PM I check. Don't see what's gonna call that we beat
Title: Re: Check it down or Valuetown? Post by: Free_Rollin on June 15, 2010, 01:13:46 PM I check. Don't see what's gonna call that we beat This pretty much. There's so many more hands villain checks to call that beat us, than hands he calls on the end which we beat. Title: Re: Check it down or Valuetown?

Title: Re: Check it down or Valuetown? Post by: poonjoe on June 16, 2010, 05:44:13 PM Well what made this hand unusual as far as I was concerned is that I just felt his range is heavily weighted towards QK. That coupled with the fact that there are few hands that can check call us that we beat made me lean towards the check.
However, perhaps a superior line would be to bet-fold really small, getting calls from the weaker one pair hands? Title: Re: Check it down or Valuetown? Post by: doubleup on June 16, 2010, 10:32:15 PM to bet-fold really small That would be the quintessence of exploitability. Title: Re: Check it down or Valuetown? Post by: GreekStein on June 16, 2010, 11:57:48 PM yeah Joe anyone half decent is going to realise what you're doing and just start shoving on you
Title: Re: Check it down or Valuetown? Post by: poonjoe on June 18, 2010, 03:07:04 PM Mmmm point taken but players like that are rare at this level...
This time he had KQ and was presumably trap checking. |
