3 Barrels vs Reg 200NL
 

Villain is sarfu (22/18/3) over a good sample. I've played with him a decent amount lately and havent seen him make any hugely stationy calls. WTSD is 23%. Decided to float the flop as this didnt hit that much of his opening range but could have nailed some of my flatting hands. His c/c on the turn and tiny blocker on the river screams a mediocre/weak hand (AT at best, imo). Likey?

you say blocker

Re: 3 Barrels vs Reg 200NL
 

so wait, what are you supposed to have T7s or 77?

you're repping a super narrow range imo

Re: 3 Barrels vs Reg 200NL
 

Yes he's repping a narrow range but its not that narrow, it includes all sets (maybe not TT). Anyway I don't completely hate it TBH and you can always blame metagame if he calls he he he.
I might make the river raise slightly smaller tho. If my reading isn't way off he has 142 behind when he bets the river so I might just make it 95 or 105 or something I think it looks equally strong if not stronger and saves us a little bit when he pwns us. Whats your stats/image?

I wouldn't be raising this flop with sets a tonne.

Re: 3 Barrels vs Reg 200NL
 

you can only hope that the mega boner he gets prevents him from snapcalling here.

Re: 3 Barrels vs Reg 200NL
 

I've been playing at 19/16/4 and I'd play 22,44,TT, 33 like this VERY often

The reason you would do this with AA is the reason you don't do it with A6.

while that's true, throwing in 3, realistically 2 sets, still keeps your range pretty narrow

it just looks bluffy

ridiculously true, unfortunately. JTs calls and is good. Why do these gays have to be soooo gay?

Re: 3 Barrels vs Reg 200NL
 

I don't like it against this guy. He obviously seems like decetn player, knows you're good. He knows this tiny blocker will elicit aggression from you, so imo he's doing it only if he plans to call your raise.

pretty sure he discounts A5 and 56 pretty severely, as you should be raising the flop w/ those, or folding

anyway, point is your repping a series of wacky hands, it's just not very believable

Re: 3 Barrels vs Reg 200NL
 

If he had bet $50 then shoving would be decent but him betting $10 is a plea for you to raise him and get stacked.

Re: 3 Barrels vs Reg 200NL
 

also why not just calling with A6 lol. You only have to be good one out of 10 times, he must have a draw once here right? I dont like raising these things.

Re: 3 Barrels vs Reg 200NL
 

the $10 bet on the river is sooo weird. looks too obvious a blocker to be a blocker, and too obvious a fake blocker to be a fake blocker.

why shove. a $70 bet will surely do it

Re: 3 Barrels vs Reg 200NL
 

i don't know whether villain is an idiot or a genious

Re: 3 Barrels vs Reg 200NL
 

i dont understand the shove at all, would you shove JJ+ 2pr and sets here? i really doubt it (though based on his call maybe time you start)

play it like you would a set, then this time even if you get called its not a losing play because the next 3 times hes calling and losing and youll make more in the long run because you did only raise this to 90 and got snap called.

i might even raise to only 60 here to make it look even more credible

Re: 3 Barrels vs Reg 200NL
 

I think people concentrate too much on what we are repping. We should focus more on what he can have an actually call with. He might feel that our play is suspicious but he will still not call with 99 or w/e.

I think I like it as his line doesn't indicate him to be willing to stack off. But maybe raise river a lil smaller like $133.

the better of a player he is, the worse this assumption is, and we're assuming this guy is actually decent
