25NL 6m: ATo in the BB

Jigsaws · #1 09-25-2006, 03:53 PM

Villain is unknown: has sat down maybe ten hands ago.

Ultimate Bet No-Limit Hold'em, $.25 BB (5 handed) internettexasholdem.com

Button ($47.70)
SB ($15.55)
Hero ($32.50)
UTG ($16.70)
MP ($36.80)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG raises to $0.85, 3 folds, Hero calls $0.60.

Fold preflop, right?

Flop: ($1.80) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero checks, UTG checks.

This flop check is suspicious. Most people do c-bet after a preflop raise.

Turn: ($1.80) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero checks, UTG bets $1.8, Hero calls $1.80.

Pot control on a 3 flush board.

River: ($5.40) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)

Well. At least I beat overpairs now. Check-call, bet-fold, bet-call?

Even though it's my BB, w/o reads I'm folding this when UTG opens up. You can very easily be dominated through out the hand.

As played, I think your ahead, he probably just has A or K of diamonds, so I'd bet-call the river.

I bet/fold here against an unknown. He isn't checking behind TP on a drawy flop, and he isn't value raising anything we beat on the river. A small pp or a single pair might look us up if we bet around 2$, so thats what I would bet.

Bump.

Against an unknown at these levels I tend to call these small pf raises.

I think I would lead turn, we're mostly ahead of him here. Lead river for sure.

This is the standard opener with the bet pot button. I use it too.

Call a push or fold?

If his play haven't be extremely tight during those 10 hands I would bet the flop. There are tons of weak players trying to steal pre-flop but haven't heard about cont.bet. On turn also half pot lead and we propably see he folding his hand.

I think c/c flop is good. I agree that his check behind is weird.

I bet turn. I don't want Ad or Kd seeing a free card.

I bet/fold river.

Against an unknown I'd probably fold to a push.

Fold PF. Flop is good, turn is fine. I would bet/call the river. It is unlikely that he has the flush (as most FDs bet the flop) and more likely that he has something like A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]K or something. But bet the river, maybe get a call from 99 or something.
