What kind of a blocking bet is this? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: River bluff
 

I like it personally. I think this is often a PP that expected you to bet the ace regardless of your holding.
Obviously he could have Ax but IMO this is a blocking bet quite often from soemthign like 66 or 88.

hmmm i dunno, i dont know what you put villan on? like a PP>66? Air?

if you had a read its ok, if not - bustooo!

you broke the 2hands a day rule [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] lol

Re: River bluff
 

Obviously a pp or a sc - what else can he limp call UTG? Otherwise I would bet the flop. But he cant call turn with a sc.

ps I also almost broke a "3BI down" stop loss rule, what do you expect from me? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: River bluff
 

hmmm why not, it only has to work sometimes and your hand looks like an obvious A

"no one ever folds a boat"
Relatively unknown


its ok, just rather not do it vs just "a regular" tbh.

Re: River bluff
 

I am not expecting him to fold a boat. I am expecting him to fold 77. Maybe T9 if I am lucky.

Re: River bluff
 

is he capable of weakleading river with a boat? his range is super narrow, so i like it. he
