Hi People,

Your thoughts on the line I took on this hand please?

Playing £1/£1 in a London card room and a young reg moves over to our table with a £700 stack (max buy-in £150) and proceeded to start throwing his weight, and chips, around as soon as he sat down.

He's been bullying the table for about 20mins before this hand:

I'm on the button with  :  : (stack around £250)
Two limpers to me (including the young reg in UTG) and I make it £6, blinds fold and UTG makes it £26. I call

 :  :  :Two Diamonds

UTG Cbets £35, I call. I think my flush draw and two overs to this board is good enough to continue with. I cant see that this has hit is range well

 :

UTG checks and I check behind for pot control. I considered semi-bluffing the turn but thought it was well within the villains ability to get out of line with any two and decided I just didn't know what I would do if he check raises. 

 :

Villain checks again. I feel that the Villain has showed so much weakness now that he is polarised to either trying to trap me with a set or he has absolutely nothing/missed draw, it goes against all the other lines I have seen since he sat down. I bet £52 and after a lot of talk he crying calls and mucks when I show the King.

Did I miss value with the turn check? if he has enough to call the river bet then he surely would have called the turn AND what do i do if he check raises the river? Is the rivered top pair good enough to play for stacks here?

Apart from making it £8 preflop I'd play it the same I reckon.

I would bet the turn to make him fold his ace highs. Which it looks like he called you with on the river

I did once see two in a hand at the late unlamented Gala Notts.

I also once found an on the floor there which fell out of someone's sock..

Nope... he still had enough after Smiley... I didn't even say sorry

And yes.. the river is a typo. Was was

Apart from making it £8 preflop I'd play it the same I reckon.

£8 is a pretty big open for the game much over £6 and you're only getting call by a tight ranger I think. Thanks for the option though, might mess about with some different opens in future

if you're playing a £1/£1 game where the vast majority of the player pool are folding stuff for £8 they would call for £6 then you are defo in the wrong game!

A simple strategy of opening to £6 with ok hands £10 with good hands and £12 with really good hands usually works a treat at these levels, in fact at any level of live poker game tbh

As played if you miss the river are you betting all the same or checking back?

As a general rule in these games I try not to attempt any big river bluffs, these people (even the regs) tend to be serious non-believers if they've gone all the way to the river... I think if I miss I give up and check behind.

I would bet the turn in this case then.
