AQd top two

Unknown Entity · #1 02-23-2006, 08:33 PM

Villian just sat. Limits are $5/$10 NL. Effective stacks:

Hero ($2800)
Villian ($700)

Hero opens UTG to $35, Villian calls on Button, everyone else folds.

Flop 5c Q Kc
Hero bets $55, Villian calls.

Turn A
Hero bets $75, Villian raises to $200, Hero calls (?)

River 7
Hero checks, Villian pushes.

Should I have forced Villian all-in on the turn? Given my line, is the river an easy call against a busted flush draw or an easy fold against JT?

Not top two. I call but a fold might be best. What do you think the $700 stack means?

Id call

Is there a certain reason why you'd call? What do you put Villian on?

well, since there is absolutely NO read given on villian I think his range here is enormous. Is he LAG enough to represent an ace when you make a weak bet at him (which you did on the turn).

Maybe he actually has an ace and thinks his hand is good. Only hands to be afraid of are AK and JT or a slowplayed 55. JT is the only real thing I'd worry about here. I would push this turn 100% and hope to fill up on river if I'm up against JT. Otherwise you are good.
