Bubble of MTT we have 30bb, blinds 400/800, we have 24k, there is no anti's in play. We have everyone at the table covered, apart from the player in this hand. He has 32k and is 2nd in chips overall. 10 Paid, 11 left.
Don't really have much in way of reads.
We have
OTB. The s/b, b/b are short stacked, and trying 2 get into the money.
Villian min raises from UTG+ 1, we just call. I have 3 bet him a couple of times, so decided just to call in position.
The blinds get out of the way. Pot 2.2k
. Villian min bets 400, we raise to 1600. He calls. Pot 5.4k
Turn;
, he donks for 400 again(!), we call (!?) thoughts? Pot 6.2K
River;
, he bets half pot, 3.1k, we call.
Really interested on what people think of the Turn and the bizarre min donk bet by villain. We have the nut flush draw, maybe I should be raising here(?) but it's pretty bad if he 3 bets, we are just beat.
On the river, I don't think I can do anything but call. AK has us beat, we beat all his Ace X hands, apart from Ace 9. It's not impossible he has Ace 9, or a flush. Sometimes this type of player will just think, I've been raised on the flop better bet something, quite often it's a really small bet, then they mash the pot button on the river, "i need to now get value from my hand". I don't think he has 33 or 99 as played on the flop (and turn). He either has Ace 9 or a Flush, or Ace x. I expect this kind of player always to bet bigger OTR, Pot or close to pot, with their flushes/ FH's. If he does bet bigger I think it's more a fold than a call, and don't expect to get away with jamming as a bluff despite having
, as don't expect him to ever fold a flush.
