Re: when giving free cards is better than betting vulnerable hands
I have been lurking here for at least several years and surprised to see a hand in which I'm a villain. (Barring a cosmic coincidence.)
Innerpeace is aggressive, sometimes too aggressive if you ask me (not quite the playing style you expect of someone with his screen name). His raise smelled like he wanted to bluff push the turn if I called. If I raise the flop he folds garbage. If I call he can donk of the rest of his stack. Yes he can suck out. But it is a risk I am willing to take since I know I win more money that way in the long run. Of all the hands he could have had he had one that could suck out.
I think I played the hand correctly given his playing style. He just got lucky. Simple as that.
Also, I resent the hollywooding comment, I don't know what the **** he is talking about. Despite that, if I fill up, he is still calling at least a small bet on the river. He is scary good at putting people on hands though, but there's NO WAY he gets away from this without forking over some chips.
