instafold?

Fold PF, don't get yourself in situations like this. Also calling stations have the mentality that villains are constantly bluffing, it just doesn't happen that often at these levels.

I fold turn after he calls your raise on the flop. Are we praying he has J6 when he bets turn/river?

[br.bm]

don't assume anyone is bluffing ... you will call waaaay to much if you fear you get bluffed all the time.

If this guy was very active the last couple of hands I may call him. But all you beat is a bluff here.

[Leviathan101]

Fold turn, without a read he bets weak hands into aggresion. By river you're beat almost certainly. You have no reason to assume he's bluffing.

[BoozeHound]

lol at folding pf.

I play it exactly the same until the turn where I fold. You beat only a bluff/semibluff, and how often does villain call a raise on a bluff OOP? so, by turn/river you only beat a flush draw/combo with a pair &lt; J.

[Angrymoog]

No call on the river.

I'm not a fan of your play in this hand. there's no purpose to the raise really. He already overbet the pot, so if he is doing this with a range of hands where most beat you and some dont(such as, better kicker hands, overpairs vs lower pairs/pocket pairs and flush draw) you can put money in when youre more likely to have a better hand vs villain range. When you raise, you are forcing him to drop those weak hands and only play with hands that beat you(and the flush draw)

If this player is fairly aggressive I cant see the harm in simply calling down as long as it bricks on teh turn and river. Otherwise, especially if he's a good player, you can just let this go. The pot is quite small.

Advice for people unsure of their games: dont play big pots in the blinds. Just the fact that you are in the blinds should make you very cautious because its where I and most bad players lose a lot of money.

The called reraise means you are done with the hand. Playing big pots with top pair (before turn) weak kicker is a bad idea anyways.

Call flop.

As played. fold river; but, folding turn isn't out of the question.
