Default It depends

It completely depends on the Villain. If the Villain is:

Vladimir: Easy raise. That call station will hand you money with whatever he raised with.

Davebreal: Easy raise. Just type, "I've got 99xx for trips", and he'll be typing
"its a set, goddammit" as he times out with his quad 5's.

Niss: Easy fold. That tight ass has AA for sure and is too weak tight to raise preflop.

Mendacious. Easy raise. He's got quads for sure, but will be worried about you making a straight flush on river so will fold.

Gameover: Easy call. That blufftard can have any 4 cards and will bet for sure on river for easy money.

LaceyDuvall: Easy raise, but type "damn you got a fine ass bitch" and she'll start smiling and time out.

Txredman: Easy minraise. Ever since he went off the 'roids his 'nads are too small to call. Witness his reply in this thread.

neverforget: Easy call. just type "you know this is highstakes $10-20 right?", and he'll go "oh, [censored]", and time out.

buzz: easy minraise. type, "what does Wilson sim say to do here?" and he'll go run it while he times out.

HAbib Marwan": Who the [censored] is Habib Marwan anyway??

Mike Matusow: Easiest raise of all. he'll snort a line and play for stacks with naked 5x.

BadBeatPhil: Easy raise. He'll reraise you all in with quad 2's on a bluff.

Hakallah: Easy fold. That guy is scary good, so whatever you do will be wrong.


Hope that helps.

Default Re: 2000PL08 - Errr... I have a boat.

No one here seems to be worried about quads. Aces full is also a possibility, but much less likely. If you are going to reraise here, what do you do if you are reraised? That being said, smooth calling here seems like giving too much up, given his likely holdings (a smaller boat, a 5 plus a lo draw, a flush plus a lo draw). His reraise feels like a probe to see if you are trying to steal. Once you have decided to reraise, how much to bet? And what to do if reraised? This seems entirely based on the nature of your opponent. You have no info on villian?

LOL. That's awesome. I love the comments about me.

From the post, I assume you're HAKALLAH?

I'm up 2300 on you [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]. WHAT IT DO?

This is incorrect. For Hak Allah, you tell him that you're a girl, and he'll auto-call with his A234ns while typing "less poker more titties".

After all the debate...why push here? His likely holdings are a smaller boat, a 5 plus a lo draw, a flush plus a lo draw with a very slim chance of quads/AA. Could A234 make this play too? I think that whatever he has out of this, he will probably call the raise and could easily get 1/2 with a slim chance of scooping. I think having position is KEY in this hand, especially if you don't have history on this player. Re-evaluate on the river depending on the card AND his action.

Results:

It was an insta raise to $100 and it worried me. I ended up just caling with my position. The river was a 6 and he insta potted. I called and was shown quads.
