Title: Hand Vs ElRupert in Warm Up
Post by: outragous76 on February 15, 2011, 05:24:40 PM
Ok just been back through my HH and I think this is an interesting hand. Outcome is already on the forum but really wondering what people do on the turn?

Set up - 9 people from the bubble (which is like 3 hands). I am fairly sure the blinds are folding hence the open. I havent been at the table for too many hands - i obv know Rupert is very capable.

FWIW - i dont think he knows much about me other than probs recognises name off blonde

OK - when he flats pre - I have a few thoughts,

1. He doesnt have total junk
2. He could have a monster (given spot)
3. Probs suited connectors or broadways, and happy we are deep enough and the bubble is there that he can outplay me post flop if he needs/wants too



*** FLOP *** [Tc Ad 7s]
outragous76: bets 11255
ElRupert: calls 11255

I have to C bet flop? - Felt standard

*** TURN *** [Tc Ad 7s] [Ks]

As this happened I tanked on the turn and didnt have a clue what to do - i check


outragous76: checks
ElRupert: bets 16825


He bets 17k into like 40k and we are double gutted - but could obv be chopping to the Q - i have 60k behind

Does anyone call?

i was so so close to doing that - but i had a lingering doubt about him having AA KK

Don't think he's calling a shove here with AJ.

Yeah I mean it's Sunday i'm probably playing lots of tables (I wasn't) and i'm probably hardly paying attention to who villain is (altho this time I actually googled you cos I recognised lol) so my range is pretty strong here and does pretty decently on that flop so prob just c/f.  I can be flatting some very strong hands here esp if I expect the SB/BB who are pretty short to rip it in quite wide.

Doubt I have a b/f range on turn unless i'm getting pretty out of line which is pretty unlikely :P

I obv didnt have your time at the table with the blinds - but with 2-3 hands to the bubble and a sunday cash i just figured they would be folding.

Not sure I love the C-bet here.  He is very likely to have a part of it and also very likely to be ahead of your opening range here (I might just remember a specific post but I am pretty sure I have read on blonde about how you like to exploit the bubble too).  I would also be thinking to myself that of all the players at the table the one I don't want to be playing a big pot against is Rupert who could quite easily (maybe even probably) have cards that either make your draw either to a chop or six cards (ie he has the flushg cards).  If I had to put him on a hand I would say something like JTss or Axss and he isn't folding those kind of hands.  Just fold.

Just fold pre when theres a capable player with a big stack behind you, you're just asking for him to own you in position on the bubble

if had seen him taking advantage of the bubble then i would have, but he hadnt played a hand so the blinds looked like mine

ye, its a good board in general for it. if effective stacks were like 45bb+ id be 3 balling for sure but seems to shallow here. With these stack sizes id just c/f  the flop aswell.

I'd check flop, but if I had bet it, I'm gonna bet the turn here too.

I'm not calling

Because I don't want to risk all my chips. If I had a stronger draw I would.
