Title: heads up optimistic
Post by: polerization on October 21, 2013, 06:21:48 PM
 Ad 7h in BB
Hero:£35
villain: £115
button raises: £1.50 i call
flop:  7h Kd 6d i check call for £2.10
turn: 5d i check raise now he makes it £5.10 i raise to £11 he calls
river  4s i have around 90% pot back at this point and think i take this line with the flush so jam he calls with  5d 5h

I just want to know people's opinions on the line did i actually rep the flush because i think i play the flush the same way?

A great example of why it's best to fold these sort of trash hands.

As players I guess don't try to bluff a station?

huh pre flop?

i think c/r the flop is what i'd do nearly every time, re raising the turn looks too aggressive. i'd flat with a made flush. looks like villain will bet 3 times a lot and we can get him to call worse on the river.

so call call c/r as a complete bluff is a very good line. you can get folds from 3x 8x and sets, if you had a made flush this line seems more likely than raising turn then shoving river.

like it, but size turn slightly bigger jam river for ~80% - turn raise to small/cheap as it is

flop and turn seem like absolutely mandatory-super duper calls both for range protection and standard bluffcatching. this is Heads Up, he isnt folding better.

Also why are we shortstacking hu? Were playing HU because we have an edge thus want to be as deep as possible, generall, and if this is live then the rake will absolutely destroy us.

The river is way more of a check call than a jam as he isnt folding better that he bets on the turn.
