WTF do i do about minbet-minreraisers (Stars $55r)
 

relatively new to table, but I just hit a streak where I won four pots in a row (culminating in a knockout of someone with a flopped full with 92 in the BB vs. a turned flush).

Uhh, is he really dumb enough to take this line with a queen? What do I do here, how often do I have to be good, if I call, how big a river bet can I call, etc.

J9SUITED is Cloutier's acct, but I've played against some real donks using that account. I really think you have at best 5 outs.

Re: WTF do i do about minbet-minreraisers (Stars $55r)
 

I thought J9 of Clubs or something was his account?

Anyway, fold.

And fold preflop.

And prob just call the turn.

Re: WTF do i do about minbet-minreraisers (Stars $55r)
 

Yeah, it's J9 of Clubs, not J9SUITED.

Look, Nitty McNit might be afraid to play A9 on the button vs. a cutoff raise, but not me. I have position and what rates to likely be the best hand right now (I did consider reraising PF).

Re: WTF do i do about minbet-minreraisers (Stars $55r)
 

Oh yeah, my bad.

But I know J9SUITED from somewhere. Let me rack my brain or look for notes.

Re: WTF do i do about minbet-minreraisers (Stars $55r)
 

Yeah, he's actually shown to be decent in my opinion. I don't know WTF this is. Maybe some 3rd level thinking?

I'm calling down here I think. Just because this is weird as hell, and also because I like calling.

Re: WTF do i do about minbet-minreraisers (Stars $55r)
 

I don't see a hand having 5 outs.

Let's get a range here. Would a queen make these minbets on the flop and turn? Would a player bad enough to not build the pot with trips here be bad enough to make this play without a queen?

I mean, either he has it or he doesn't, right? And if he doesn't, how often is that the case, and what does he have?

Re: WTF do i do about minbet-minreraisers (Stars $55r)
 

I agree with Ansky.

I'm thinking TT/JJ/KK/AA is more likely than QX for some reason.

Obviously you don't have 5 outs vs AA, but otherwise.

I assume you mean calling down as opposed to raising the turn? I think that was they key mistake here. As played, I fold.
