Unkown opponent. Feel like he always has the Kd in his hand to continue Title: Re: PLO, River from hell Post by: DMorgan on January 17, 2014, 05:11:54 AM With all the diamond and jack blockers I'd say that he's probably weighted more towards sets/2pair type hands on the flop. I would assume that J9 checks back this river but as for whether or not a non-boat Kx bets or not I couldn't really say since I don't play these games so i'll leave that one to lildave.
It feels like for us to have the best hand on the river he's going to have to have something pretty specific like KJ98 w/diamonds or KQTx w/diamonds and weighing that up against all the set and 2pair combos I just don't think that there are enough hands that he's going to turn into bluffs to do anything other than c/fold? Slight derail but from villains perspective this seems like a pretty sexy spot to turn his J9 w/diamonds hand into a bluff and jam river? Although I would expect most randoms to just snap check it back. Title: Re: PLO, River from hell Post by: Rexas on January 17, 2014, 05:29:28 AM Had a little chat about this, and I feel like because we do have the board so crushed (i.e. we hold or block most of the cards the villain would need to call the check raise and the turn bet with) and that card smashes him so much (he's going to have a K high two pair with the Kd a lot, so even if he doesnt have a set that card still massively improves his range) that it's gonna be pretty hard for us to have the best hand now. Assuming we check and he bets, he is going to have us beat so much here that even if we call and are correct I would feel like we lose the pot vs his range basically every time. I think this is one of those spots where if he does make a bluff on the river, we should just accept that we're oop and have hit the worse card ever and allow him to do so. Think the motto "If we never get bluffed, we're calling too much" is relevant here imo :p

And I wouldn't comment on the hand myself, 2 cards too many innit. Title: Re: PLO, River from hell Post by: Karabiner on January 17, 2014, 11:21:56 AM Could we not bet about $125 here?
Title: Re: PLO, River from hell Post by: GreekStein on January 17, 2014, 12:42:25 PM Would probably check fold this river vs most

Do we ever make the curiosity call? Title: Re: PLO, River from hell Post by: DMorgan on January 17, 2014, 04:54:38 PM Good sizing from villain imo, don't think you're ever good here even if he bets J9 always. Your hand is pretty face up at this point as AJ

Literally nothing else you can do he has hardly ANY bluffs at all, in fact if he's decent then he prolly should actually never be bluffing! Small-ish bet doesn't surprise me when the K pairs, making QQQKK and TTTKK kinda venerable, and KKKK obviously has hardly anything to pay it off. |
