200 NL Good floating?
 

Villain is 20/17/4.37 over 600 hands and probably a little bit too aggressive postflop with medium strength hands. Good spot to bet river?

I think it's a good spot to fold preflop.

Re: 200 NL Good floating?
 

I generally don't like out of position floats, but I think you're better off betting the turn here than the river.

If I am actually calling this OOP with 77, then floating the flop, I am definitely betting big on the turn.

Re: 200 NL Good floating?
 

yeah, you're good here...the guy took a check on the turn with his 9sQs, 3c4c..etc..

no way he checks a PF RR king there..or a set..
all draws miss that river.

NH.

Re: 200 NL Good floating?
 

It looks like a standard c-bet by him on the flop which with his stats doesnt mean a ton. If you feel like floating bet the turn to get him to fold his AJ, AQ that missed.

Your line looks like air or a monster, I could see him looking you up w/ any ace or a medium king.

fold pre, i really don't like the river bet tbh, looks bluffy

Re: 200 NL Good floating?
 

i really hate this...

Re: 200 NL Good floating?
 

OK, leaving the kind and very likely correct advice of folding preflop behind [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img], what will be the river calling range if you are the villain?

Re: 200 NL Good floating?
 

Fold preflop X10. If your going to OOP float at least do it with an ace or a draw or something, and try not to do it on a board where you almost never have a big hand but villain can (i.e. he will vbet and 2nd barrel you alot which is horrible). I don't really expect a relative unknown to fold an ace on the river, but since you got here like this... I dunno, I don't have much experience with this but I think it's -ev.

Re: 200 NL Good floating?
 

You're line makes no sense especially on this river. What hand doesn't 4 bet pre, just check calls this flop, checks turn, and then suddenly leads when what should be a scare card for your range comes off?

You don't have AK, you don't have a set, you fold A9 pre.

honestly once you get to the river I think c/c is &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; betting. At least you snap off bluff once in a while when the ace rolls off. I don't think c/c is good but it is better imo.

Basically everything that is ahead of 77 because of what I posted above.

Re: 200 NL Good floating?
 

The only hands you're losing to here is AQ and AJ...They are viable, but if we think a guy with a 4.37 AF is only reraising you Pre with big aces, we're sadly mistaken.

You rep a slowrolled set and AK pretty decently here..

People dont seem to believe in slowrolling the set anymore..This is exactly how i play a set against a 4.37 AF..By the turn, if he has anything, he's putting all his money in for you.

Thus, I put him on air..HOpefully that air didnt include AJ or AQ
