1-3NL cash game hand

[Junior Senior]

Popped into caesars to play some 1-3. Been playing about half hour and been fairly active. Game is lively.

I am BB with 10 10. sat with 195

Tight guy limps MP but later folds pre.

SB raises to 14 playing 650. He has already made a huge cr on me when I was betting pre, flop and turn with air. He seems fairly aggro and looks like he wants to put a few moves on people.

I think about the 3 bet but stack not deep enough go fold to 4 bet shove which I think is in his arsenal with a fairly wide range.

I call with a plan to evaluate post flop.


Flop is       giving me a set.

He checks which surprises me but I bet 20 he calls quick.

Turn is  . He checks again and I bet 35. He calls.

What do we have him on to here?


River is  

This completes draws but he checks again so I bet 40. He tanks, gains to call then after a minute shoves.

What's he got? What do we do here. We have about 100 left.

If he has it in his arsenal to 4b light then obv its a super fistpump jam. You are also not super deep, you have like 65 bigs.

On flop there is around 30. You bet 20, meaning there is 70 in the pot and effective stacks of 160. I initally thought you turn bet was horrible, but on reflection if you're going to be 3barreling here alot then its fine as you can pot size jam on the river, I prefer 40 turn, 110 on river. On river we have stacks of 130 and pot of 130, its pretty tough, but I'm going depolarise and try to rep flushes/nothing.

Depolarize? What do you mean?
So you think I now have no reason to value bet the river.

This is exactly why you should 3bet, TT crushes a 'fairly wide range'

[GreekStein]

really confused by logic in OP. If he has a very wide range to 4-bet then 3-bet and snap his cock off.

[Junior Senior]

Yeah was confident the 10 10 was ahead of his range so should 3 bet pre I guess.

Thoughts on the river action as per how hand plays?

[GreekStein]

Is it just HU to the flop?

I think you should be betting nearer 55 on the turn than 35.

[SuuPRlim]

pretty sure id never fold the river, although it might well be a terrible call...

i'd have been all in way before this tho, i think ur way too shallow not to be

[Junior Senior]

Yeah should have played it more aggro. We were heads up to flop. Anyway he had AA and rivered me.

I didn't want to lose him though throughout the betting and didn't consider I might be beat at any point until the river re raise by which point I was never folding. Although perhaps on a better day I might have found the fold. Not many hands I am beating I guess....

Dunno much about your image but doubt he is going to 4 bet you light that often also I don't think he is raising very light out of the SB even if he is pretty active so I think calling pre is the best option.  Then just bet more on flop more on turn then jam river.
