Foxwoods ME Day 3 vs Rooooooothlus
 

2k/4k
Roothlus(80k) Limps UTG
Freddy Deeb folds, he's been playing ~60/40
I(100k) Limp w/ JJ in UTG+2
folds to blinds who complete and check
BB is frankie flowers

Flop is 854 two tone
check to roothlus who bets 15k
i raise to 42k
blinds fold
roothlus folds

he expressed extreme displeasure with my line, what do you think.

Re: Foxwoods ME Day 3 vs Rooooooothlus
 

don't like it either. i'd much rather flat.

to add: if u hadn't shown that rooth folded, i would have thought he had a pretty big hand. im assuming u thought the same since u limped. but then on the flop you're basically turning your hand into a bluff. doesn't make much sense.

Re: Foxwoods ME Day 3 vs Rooooooothlus
 

I don't think rooth is limping with that table to fold to a raise so I dunno why you didn't raise let freddy flat and him squeeze limpshove and snapcall

Frankie Flowers, is that a made up name? Sounds like it.

Re: Foxwoods ME Day 3 vs Rooooooothlus
 

my bad jon but you know I liked your postflop line.

Re: Foxwoods ME Day 3 vs Rooooooothlus
 

Raising, folding and calling all suck postflop. Does Foxwoods give a player any other options?

Re: Foxwoods ME Day 3 vs Rooooooothlus
 

I think he has 99 here alot I guess. With that read I'd flat flop check behind turn and vbet river.

Re: Foxwoods ME Day 3 vs Rooooooothlus
 

randall what about pricing in and having the blinds come along and what turn cards do we really like?

Re: Foxwoods ME Day 3 vs Rooooooothlus
 

I thought I hated this but I really don't. I think roothlus is basically never getting out of line against our raise here, and from what I understand about frankie he is prob playing his hand straightforward as well, but will call with a ton of weird hands that have a fair number of outs if we just call and price him in. If there was ever a spot to raise (at least partly) "for information" this may be it.

raising to 42K of roothlus' 80K stack/our own 100K stack is definitely not raising for info.

I feel like this is the best of two bad choices postflop but I'd rather just jack it up PF as well.

Re: Foxwoods ME Day 3 vs Rooooooothlus
 

im in the raise pre camp, but what could he possible be limping pre with 20bb that ended up playing post as is. 99, AK are about all that come to mind.

Re: Foxwoods ME Day 3 vs Rooooooothlus
 

Oh I suck at reading. ya I'd just raise pre and get it in. As played I guess this is the way to go.

your raise is a sweet bluff

Re: Foxwoods ME Day 3 vs Rooooooothlus
 

i don't think there's a chance in hell roothlus folded AA there

Re: Foxwoods ME Day 3 vs Rooooooothlus
 

actually it kind of makes sense for him to have AA here... I dont think he open limps very often at all, but with an agro player raising 40 percent of hands that would be a good spot for it. Thats not a great board for AA and hits alot of hands that he would expect u to limp behind with. If he knows you he probably gave you too much credit. Sick bluff.

and lol @ roothlus sucking...

Re: Foxwoods ME Day 3 vs Rooooooothlus
 

not sure why you didnt raise PF, was it just to set up Deeb? i dont like the post flop raise because i dont think roothlus is betting anything here that is second best to you...
