I'll pm RichardL to come and post on this one. His lines in these spots are pretty good.

Iirc he prob won't like checking turn vs any decent reg because if you bet the river it can never be a bluff.

Agree with not checking the turn. You say you want value from the river but he's probably bet folding about $30 tops. That's hardly value. Anything that he calls or 3 bets with beats you so the turn is the time to get value.

You've disguised your hand well by doing a flat call. His range here contains far too many hands that we beat to ever consider folding.

Doing another flat call then getting it on the river looks too strong. Just get it in now and hope he has a hand good enough to call.


Matt what hands are we getting 3 streets of value from that he checks the flop?

I don't think A2 is in a 19/15 utg opening range. Btw James 10/8 just does not exist at 6max, 15/10 is about as tight as it gets I reckon (for a full stacker).

It's a sick cooler mate, it annoys me that people who play this bad and only ever do this when they 'have it' get rewarded by totally coolering their opponents.

For the above quote Cute_fish will vouch for me on this, it has been seen on not only 888 but Ipoker fullstackers with these stats. But on the whole your right this is pretty rare an was an extreme example from me Smiley

I think this is just a cold one mate to be honest.

You're only 100 bbs deep so flopping top 2 is never easy to get away from and I'm not sure you ever should.

I don't like your 3 bet on the turn. Like you've said he's folding anything that we beat and we're not giving him a chance to bluff the river. To be fair though there isn't a lot to bluff with on this board given the action so it probably doesn't make much difference.

If you flat the turn it probably goes in on the river anyway so at least you saved yourself a mouse click.

I was joking about the A2 btw.

spot on.

simplest bet bet bet i have ever seen. checking turn and betting full pot on river makes u a fish, unless its vs a fish. even then u shud bet bet and then bet pot on river.
