View Full Version : Handling aggression when OOP

A little advice?

Button had been playing every pot and raising with a wide range. This was the first hand I played in an hour.

What I'm wondering about is my PF and flop play.

How do I keep from giving up this a pot when I'm confident I have the best hand?

Thanks.

Dont think I like any of this except the PFR.

Id bet closer to the pot, you're giving him 3:1 on the flop.

Turn im not sure what you're doing calling. The check is OK but I think you have to fold if you're going to check. You're not getting odds to call anything.

River, why are you checking here after calling the turn? Either he checks too, or he bets and you fold. But you already called the turn and the board didnt change at all here.

You missed the flop in a multiway raised pot OOP...pretty good reasons to skip the cbet here.

As played, fold turn

why are you confident you have the best hand? This flop is a terrible flop to cbet regardless, because it hits a lot of hands in anyones range. If these guys are calling you down with air you may as well wait until you have better than ace high to get their chips.

Don't cbet this, I only really ever cbet if I am against one opponent or it's a very dry board.

Please just muck on turn. What are you beating? I doubt some of your A and K outs are good either.

Thanks for the responses.

Yep. The turn call is a disaster. What can I say? I'm a fish.

But do people pot the flop here too? I was hoping to just take it down.

If not, then what looks better?

Check the flop against two opponents. That flop probably smashes right into their range.

Sometimes I just call PF for deception, check that flop OOP, c/f turn, fold the river
