I'd certainly raise the river. 88xx and QQxx are the only hands that he can really have that beat you and due to the exact same reasoning I can't see him folding other decent flushes. I'm not raising huge though, probably make it 175ish Title: Re: Raise or Call Post by: geordieneil on August 20, 2010, 04:22:10 PM i would never raise here, whats the point? is he gonna call a raise with a worse flush with loads of boats out there.....on the other hand he called ur 3 bet with a paired board on the flop.
the way the hand worked, i sigh call the river, but never reraise Title: Re: Raise or Call Post by: SuuPRlim on August 20, 2010, 05:30:56 PM I would also raise the river.
You can never really have a boat, so for this reason I think he'll bet/call for value wider. Title: Re: Raise or Call Post by: DMorgan on August 20, 2010, 10:18:11 PM i would never raise here, whats the point? is he gonna call a raise with a worse flush with loads of boats out there.....on the other hand he called ur 3 bet with a paired board on the flop. the way the hand worked, i sigh call the river, but never reraise The only boats are Q3, 88 and 83 and he almost never has Q3 or 83. Title: Re: Raise or Call Post by: SuuPRlim on August 20, 2010, 10:25:30 PM Having looked through this again he just never has a boat ever (spose he could have 4 Queens) very rarely he has 88, i said raise fold, id be tempted to raise call, but I dont think you EVER get bet/3bet in this spot so it seems irrelvant.
waste of time me writing it really.

Q8, 88, Q3, 83,....QQ &33 Possible but unlikely. Why can't he have these, he has Q5 in his hand ffs....my point is he is only calling a raise with a boat and therefore your beat, so whats the point of raising. IMO cos played the hand well. its better to win a small pot than lose a biggun Title: Re: Raise or Call Post by: SuuPRlim on August 21, 2010, 10:45:55 PM i would never raise here, whats the point? is he gonna call a raise with a worse flush with loads of boats out there.....on the other hand he called ur 3 bet with a paired board on the flop. the way the hand worked, i sigh call the river, but never reraise The only boats are Q3, 88 and 83 and he almost never has Q3 or 83.

IMO cos played the hand well. its better to win a small pot than lose a biggun by the same logic its also better to win a big pot rather than a small one? IDK, I think its close in the heat of battle I think I might just call, but his hand looks so much like a flush, and you hardly ever have a boat yourself so imo its perfectly feesable that he is bet calling here for value. Title: Re: Raise or Call Post by: Royal Flush on August 22, 2010, 05:53:09 AM Why can't he have these, he has Q5 in his hand ffs Blockers. my point is he is only calling a raise with a boat and therefore your beat, so whats the point of raising. If that was the case we could just bluff for fun in PLO and make incred money Title: Re: Raise or Call Post by: SuuPRlim on August 22, 2010, 08:56:24 AM If that was the case we could just bluff for fun in PLO and make incred money man how I've tried. Title: Re: Raise or Call Post by: geordieneil on August 24, 2010, 12:18:02 PM Why can't he have these, he has Q5 in his hand ffs Blockers. ?? the only blockers known are whats on the board, still plenty combinations that beat him my point is he is only calling a raise with a boat and therefore your beat, so whats the point of raising. If that was the case we could just bluff for fun in PLO and make incred money elaborate????? he would have to be a grade A donkey to call a raise on any paired board without a boat, even if it is double paired.....just find raising here to be absolutely pointless. yes i would be confident i was ahead, but not 100% sure Title: Re: Raise or Call Post by: SuuPRlim on August 24, 2010, 01:30:14 PM Why can't he have these, he has Q5 in his hand ffs Blockers. ?? the only blockers known are whats on the board, still plenty combinations that beat him my point is he is only calling a raise with a boat and therefore your beat, so whats the point of raising.

Its a fairly common mistake in PLO to miss tons of value in these spots.

Then if we're really really good we call anyway because we know he's good enough to know that we're good enough to deduce that he hasn't got a boat. Basically we've got a good hand that we're bluffing with but in a good way if we can turn that bluff in to a hero call. If we raise river then fold to a worse hand we're a donkey. If we're not good enough to figure several steps ahead and decide to raise to induce a bluff (I include myself here btw) then yes there is no point raising the river. Title: Re: Raise or Call Post by: geordieneil on August 24, 2010, 02:03:35 PM missed value bets on paired boards??? your only getting called if your beat (unless to a superdonk).....value bet??????
your combo analysis u mentioned to rule out q3 and 83...why? he's called with q5 in his hand. lets agree to disagree on this one Title: Re: Raise or Call Post by: SuuPRlim on August 24, 2010, 02:24:34 PM missed value bets on paired boards??? your only getting called if your beat (unless to a superdonk).....value bet?????? your combo analysis u mentioned to rule out q3 and 83...why? he's called with q5 in his hand. lets agree to disagree on this one Yeah obv no offence I respect your opinion. I think on a average you can rule these hands out because YES there will be a few (VERY FEW combo's of 83xx and Q3xx) stuff like AQQ3 etc, but at the same time there will be a few combo's of Q8xx that he cant have aswel, AQ85 etc. so for the basis of maths I think you can just remove these hands completely to save some really complex PPT calcs. But you realise how FEW Q3/83 combos he has where's a Q8 has a few more. Just in my experience spots like this where it seems like you have the best hand pretty much always but there is a small % you're beat, these are often spots where because of the action you rep SUCH a small value raange (imagine him posting the hand here after you've raised asking what to do - he'd get a few responses saying "he never has a boat really, and wouldnt raise a flush very often so i'd call) people ARE capable of hero'ing you here I just always remember hands where I value raise 2nd or 3rd nuts for value in situations like this and get called by ridiculous hands. Incidently what would WE do with suppose we had AA88 here would we raise?

Yeah vs this isnt a STANDARD river bet, I would 100% just call a lot of the time, but I'm sure raising here vs his actual range is +EV. Title: Re: Raise or Call Post by: DMorgan on August 24, 2010, 02:57:19 PM I guess its nice to know that most people snapfold nut flushes to river raises on paired boards

Just post it up to oppo's river bet and see the different responses. People can't help but be swayed when they know the guy has a good hand as well.

How exciting!!!!! So did oppo actually have the full house with Q3? You did raise on the river because you're da man then he stuck one in your eye and you snapped him the fuck off? Title: Re: Raise or Call Post by: SuuPRlim on August 24, 2010, 10:13:29 PM what so he had K783 for a boat?
Told you he had that and you should fold fishcake Title: Re: Raise or Call Post by: GreekStein on October 28, 2010, 12:33:36 PM no no, just a level. hh is correct
Title: Re: Raise or Call Post by: ACE2M on October 28, 2010, 02:34:50 PM Did we miss 88 from his combos? i like this thread. Definitely some opponent type dependency on wether i would raise here.
