I come back to the table to have a reg whisper, "Matt Frankland is on the list". Hes sat with a mate, chilling waiting for a seat to open at about 2am, friday night. He eventually gets a seat, not sure if he watched any hands or anything.

I'm playing about ~£1.2k
Matt £1k

History: 3bet his open, got in with 2 shorties ~£50 and lost on 446TT, didn't showdown. 55 won.

He has 3bet a fair few opens, but not me yet, we are opposing seats at the table, as the table is 6-8 handed, he is box 1 I'm box 10.

3bet his mate and shown KK/QQ. Stacked his mate with a lower flush for about ~£200. Turned to his mate after and said "He always has that" No clue what thinks in particular of me, I'm young, hoodie wearing, no ipod, but comfortable in the game and he guessed i was a reg.

Preflop: Look down at KK on the button. Matt makes a standard open to 7, fish flats, I make it 29, he makes it 78, it looked like he considered a flat here. Fish has £500 so this could affect his range. I've iso'd the fish after about 70% of his limps so far, and won the pot every time with barely a showdown.

Reaction from here? He is under the gun.

5b/ reaction to 6bet? 5b and reaction to flat? Flat 4b?

5 bet to 250 for sure.

reaction to 6 bet?: uh-oh

Tough life

Thread title answers the question

Ok, we have universal acceptance of the 5bet. Which is what i did. I make it £171, he calls.

Flop:  Qh 4s 3h

He tank checks. I bet £136, he tank, looks more prepared to shove then fold, and flats.

Turn:  4c

He checks.

No flush ott sorry. We do not have Kh

We have the  Kh?

Is the cash in the middle yet?

Not really sure on villains image? This is really vital to assigning what he has here.

Live tells?

Flat the 4bet imo.

I think franky's going to find it extremely difficult to buy the fact you're messing around 5betting light and is going to give you the benefit of the doubt most of the time OOP, I think he'll have picked a range of value hands that he'd rather 4bet/fold and play with initiative then just call OOP to someone who's likely to be a little tricky. There is under a 1% chance you'll induce him to get OOL and starting 6bet shipping K9s or w/e that's REALLY not how he plays.

Play a pot, IP with the best hand!

I'd bet bigger on the flop as well £350~ in OTF with ~£820 back in stacks I'd wanna bet £220 and jam £600 into £790 at some point, as played stacks are a little messy OTT I don't think he has a flush often so you still have the best hand a lot of the time, that being said he's got to be pretty strong pre-flop so we don't actually beat ALL THAT MANY hands. 

frankys gonna get ya :D

Yh lol. Fold pre.

also i hope to god villain is drunk hanging round the vic at 2am on a friday night

I believe this is tee-side, Franky's the only man from Tee-side to ever be on TV he's like their version of Jess Ennis.

Can confirm not drunk. Starting to think the board was rainbow.

He said afterwards to flat the 4bet, and I concluded with mates its probably the best thing to do. Felt like i was happy to get it in pre, but with action like this, its just brutal. As played still shove turn?

it sucks, I really don't know what to do, I think shoving the turn is prolly worst line though, checking might be better, vs Franky I'd actually be pretty tempted to just try show it down now, it looks a lot like we have the best hand but not sure what he can call us with. Before anyone asks me what value range we can have here that isn't QQ or maybe AA this is a great advocate for not 5betting.

why 5 bet me if your worried that my 6 bet range has kings in trouble? surely you should just flat the 4 in position with a hand that plays v well agianst my 4 bet range and keeps all of that range in play with shallow stacks post flop

i was quite drunk tbh, hide it well i guess

at the beginning of all the premier league shows it looks like you are trying to do a roaring tiger face to the camera. Was this your intention? No spoilers please as I have my fingers crossed for you

kind of, they asked my to do faces etc and i paniced

lol

lol. Looking forward to your final heat ty

I guess it depends on the definition of drunk. The guy you replaced jammed £300 into 225 with 44 having opened to 25 blind and calling a 3bet to 75, with a cold caller along too. Unfortunately for me, he hit a 4. Had to top up and then got a bit back for this pot. Stack sizes and board right?

ye, close enough for what we need for the hand hist anyway, not 100% sure on the board, didn't matter tho was Qxxx nothing interesting

frankys name mentioned in hushed tones as he wobbles to the table to get AA v KK for a bag within 2 mins  are the cliffs

Yeah, pretty much, only for my biggest pot ever.

no more kiddie game when I come home :P
