25/50nl Play this draw with 300bb's (PART TWO, turn play)

[HEK]

Part 1 of this hand IS HERE

Lots of good responses in that thread already. Since that one was already getting kinda long I decided to start another one about the turn play since my hand gets better but I still only have 9-high and we're still v deep.

The hand is here:


I have ~$15,000, Rounder9999 covers. He's a very good player. I have hardly any hands vs him but from what I can tell he's no lag but no tag...more like slag. He's involved in alot of pots.

He's been playing back at me a bit preflop (and on the flop a couple times). For the most part I've folded like every time. I pretty sure he thinks I'm weak-tight. I'm not playing my usual aggro game.

Folds to me on the button and I raise to $175 with 8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Rounder9999 repops to $625 from the SB. I call.

Flop ($1300) 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

He bets $1250. My action was debated in the previous thread. In the actual hand I just called.

He checks. Now what?

bet 2500 and shove if he raises or something silly like that. if he calls and checks then i'm torn for plan for a river blank. obv shove if you bluff

[snagglepuss]

with this board/action the pot is usually going to be yours regardless of whether you get there or not. 3k turn. jam river if you miss unless it is Ao/Ko, then give him the eyeball and decide.

I bet ~2500 here also but if he c/r I don't know about pushing: any c/r would probably be to about 7500ish if not more leaving rounder with about 6000 left. if he has any semblance of a hand he's not going to fold at that point.

Also, if he calls and checks river it's an easy check if you miss. If a tough opponent c/calls the turn it's because he doubts you have anything due to your flop line. I don't think a river push will work often enough as he should be making his mind up on the turn.

I know, information changes on the river if you fire again, yada yada yada. But good luck getting him to fold after he's c/called turn.

my point about pushing after he c/r - i realize he won't fold any hand that he could have, but often he has no hand at all, just A high or a low PP, so he will fold that. and when he has a low pair connected with the board, he will often let it go despite the odds bc of the scary board and our line looks quite strong. i think the times you save yourself 6k (if it gets all in we're losing 4k in equity) are outweighed by him occasionally folding the entire pot, when we can like 12k in equity or something.

and I think you're absolutely insane. a c/r here is not going to be ace high or a low PP anywhere near as often as you think.

What hands do you think he c/r's with?
