Niagara WPT: I have Trips, What is he calling me with?
 

Very early in the Tournament.

Hero has 22,000ish, Villain has about 20,000.


At this point here is what I know, Villain is a guy in his mid 30s, married. He said he got hurt in the $50-$100 game last night, and he plays high stakes limit online. He has been raising a fair amount of the time preflop. Not showing down too much, a little on the looser side. I 3-bet him once preflop and he folded OOP when I had QQ.


At the table, very little 3-betting has been happening. The pots so far have been pretty small. I have been caught bluffing once with a missed flush draw, where I played it aggressively and fired 3 barrels.

Blinds are 25/50

Preflop: Hero has K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in the sb
folded to CO,<font color="red">CO raises to 250, Hero re-raises to 700</font>, BB folds, CO calls

Preflop, I know the raise should have been bigger, I thought his raise was 200. Also I was about to start 3-betting more often.

Flop: K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
<font color="red">Hero bets 900</font>, Villain calls

Turn: Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
<font color="red">Hero bets 1400</font>, Villain calls

River: 9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Hero?

If you say bet, how much do we bet and I guess we are folding to a raise? What do we expect to get called with?

Check the turn.

250 pf raise and calling 3-bet, his ranges is JJ,QQ,AK sometimes KQs,AQs.
Once he calls the turn bet. I think he has QQ. check the river.

Just my opinion. Yes, he could be on the draw too. But, I think most time he has pp here given his pf raise and calls.

It's possible he's on the draw.


ASPoker,
What do yo put him on?

Re: Niagara WPT: I have Trips, What is he calling me with?
 

this board is dry enough that c/f is actually an option, but I don't want to bet/fold vs. this type of player either. so check/reeval depending on bet size, I guess.

I think what he puts us on, if we two barrel after three-betting pre-flop at a table we've been told that neither we nor anybody else is three-betting with a greater frequency than they are getting dealt big pairs and AK, is a greater concern. I think checking the turn is best, unless we really think that he's going to call four barrels with with a hand that's strong, but behind, on this board.

what range are we talking about? b/c if its preflop is range is much bigger, there 400bbs deep i wouldnt fold any pair there. Also our we in position or not? As played i bet this river.

Re: Niagara WPT: I have Trips, What is he calling me with?
 

o were in the SB not the button. Hmm im not folding this river if we check, i think theres enough value from Q's. I bet/fold.

Check river and reval on bet size
