Title: Don't want to fold a pair
Post by: zerofive on January 05, 2012, 02:14:55 PM
Live 50/1 game at Dusk. Me and cambridgealex and six fish. Villain just lost a medium sized pot to me; he took a call pre/call/call/lead line with Kh 8c on Jh 8d 6c Js 2d . The first hand I saw him play was where i saw him call pre/checkraise jam flop playing £100 with Qh 3h on Jd Ts 3c . So my notes on the guy are basically dead spewy, plain bad, low stakes gambler. The weird thing is the way he handled chips etc. suggested he wasn't new to the game, but perhaps that's not important.

He's playing £80~ and we cover. Straddle is on. Villain is SB.

We open the gun to £7 with Ac Qc, one caller in position, blinds and straddle complete.

Flop (£35) Ahrt 5h 2h

Checked to us we bet £21, villain jams for £67 total.

This might be dead simple versus such a massive range.

What do you think to the fold-wait to find a pair in a simpler spot on such a good table line? Is this a marginal spot we can just avoid, or is it really just a fistpump call?

Seems a ridiculously straight forward call then reload if you happen to lose.

I think the 'fold-wait ...... blah blah blah' thing is pretty dumb.

Cant fold, although it sucks when he goes "I have a flush" and looks it you like your retarded when you say, "I'm drawing thin"

We're drawing pretty thin vs a set of fives or twos too...

I would rather support Spurs than fold this.

+1. Every decision should be this easy, that'd be nice

Just hope when the 4th heArt comes on the turn you can get your money back before Alex gets his hands on it :)

Given the info you have on villain this is a trivial call vs a ridic wide range.
