I actually did read through about a third of posts, pretty compelling. Its just that only single hands posted along with trash talking, just wanted big picture in one post.

i did in fact have AQ here. if it was a bluff, it was a good one, but i really think he either had QT or 5x here. the fact that he didn't show his hand to me (he was showing some bluffs, and i had encouraged a show by letting him know I was folding a big hand) and that he didn't post the cards here lead me to believe I was right.

big laydown.

overall i won 14.5k, which isnt much over a 3 hour span with 2 tables going.

Wow, that's a pretty big fold. Sure, at FR you could say that the range to call a re-raise is like TT+ in which case AQ is only ahead of JJ which probably doesn't push river. But HU, this is a pretty big fold if he really folded AQ. TC, wanna comment on this hand? You obviously didn't mind sharing that you had AQ - if you really did have it.

What is BJ value betting there? What hands could he be bluffing with?

[/ QUOTE ]
A lower pocket pair? He calls flop because he thinks TC has missed overs. He bets turn to protect against AK or KJ. But then TC calls turn and BJ doesn't want to check it down and lose to KT/JT/etc. so he pushes river to finally get TC to lay down.

What is BJ representing in your example?

All,

I think it's funny when guys get worked up about EM2's posts. I think he is hilarious.

I was telling boosted this earlier.

And empire is my favorite poster by far in BBV.
