Title: £1/£2 at the empire, tptk river decision
Post by: Pugwashed on December 23, 2011, 10:33:38 PM
I have £400, villain covers. I've been fairly tight in a few orbits I've been at the table but aggro when I have got involved and been caught double barrelling light once. Villain (random middle aged guy) was super wide preflop, calling almost any open and making lots of light peels/call downs.

I open AK utg to £10, villain call utg+1. Get 3 more callers. Flop  Ahrt C5 3h, I bet £35 in to £51, villain calls, the rest fold. Turn  Qd, I bet £85 into £121, villain tanks for ages and someone else calls the clock (he'd tanked a lot of decisions and this wasn't the first time someone had called the clock on him), Villain calls. River  2s, pot is £291, effective stacks are £270.

What do you do and why?

Shove.

I really don't see what other option there is.

this guy as described NEVER has AQ and doesn't seem like the type to bluff.

as long as he doesn't have the 4h in his hand you should be a winner + you'll actually get called by worse, a LOT lol

Cool, don't play a ton live so not that in touch with the metagame, but that was pretty much what I decided. I cram and got snapped by K4hh, was just wondering whether jamming was too thin.

Obviously this is with hindsight but given he's flatted K4hh UTG+1 it's fair to say that his range is super wide and therefore we lose out on a lot of value by not shoving imo as he's likely to call with a lot of hands we beat.

UL that he played it badly and still got there.

if he was slightly less stationy and a little more aggro you could c/c and be told it's a good call cos he missed.

I did think about c/c and c/f but as far as him tanking the turn I thought he'd call quicker with draws and him tanking was more likely some sort of made hand. I thought by checking I'd just lose a ton of value from Ax
