villain is 30/13 in 200 hands. we haven't tangled too much yet to this point, which is one reason i wanted to 3bet preflop. i'm around 25/20. the river bet was probably not good, huh?

Re: he always has AJ here, right?
 

i like how you played it. But I would consider 2-barreling. With your line, I like the river bet; but you can fold now.

Re: he always has AJ here, right?
 

I like the line all around, as played fold on the river.

Re: he always has AJ here, right?
 

ez turn bet.

Re: he always has AJ here, right?
 

repop more pf. make 65$ or so. bet the turn.

i third the 2nd barrel

Re: he always has AJ here, right?
 

The most awesome move here is to 3bet push this river, because hes thinking "ill mini raise and fold to shove"

Re: he always has AJ here, right?
 

The even more awesome move is to mini-reraise his mini raise, then fold to a push.

I like the way you played it, although if I have a good read on my opponent where he's been calling a lot of my 3 bets in spots like this, I think a flop crai can be very sexy. As played you gotta fold this river.

Re: he always has AJ here, right?
 

What hand calls a 160$ bet on River, that you beat?

Re: he always has AJ here, right?
 

You should bet the turn IMO, also I prefer checking the river with the intention of calling, fold as played.

Re: he always has AJ here, right?
 

I would bet the turn and c/c the river. I don`t see how there is value in a river bet.

Re: he always has AJ here, right?
 

Why is everyone so into a 2nd barrel??? I can't see it, and I second barrel like a maniac.

He has to fold a lot of hands to the 2nd barrel. If I check I am intending to raise.

since he might very well float with these stacks on this board, we have a nut flush draw and might get well paid of if he calls and we hit the river and the board is paired so its easy to fold to a substantional raise. Also we are OOP.

Re: he always has AJ here, right?
 

Just fold preflop.

Re: he always has AJ here, right?
 

If you raised preflop because he was getting over agressive, I could see a repop every now and then, but a7 is pretty much garbage to play out of position. However, the way played, I would probably bet the turn also. I would have checked the river. If he made a bet I would probably call. Certainly do not reraise his raise.

why do people like the 2nd barrel? this isn't the kind of board where villain is going to call the flop with 44 because it probably missed me. also this deep Jx is always flat calling, and overpairs might also.

Re: he always has AJ here, right?
 

why are we folding the river? Guy has A9/AJ always?

Board is pretty drawy and given depth vill is likely to have raised the flop with a set or strong flopped hand. We have A-xc so he doesn't have AKc or a better A-x unless he floated this drawy board.

Also, second barrel the [censored] out of this hand as others have said, but for the reasons I have said.

I also think vill is more likely to expect you to check/call with A-x here than to bet with it which is why his bluff makes soooooooooo much sense against your average opponent.

Re: he always has AJ here, right?
 

oh and, don't 3-bet this opponent with A7c oop, it's pretty bad as although you haven't tangled he doesn't seem like the kind of player not to be paying attention, probably a casual player that things your a maniac.
