10/20 disgusting river spot
 

i have only been at the table for 15 minutes, don't have a read on opponent. he has been very aggressive, but none of his hands have gone to showdown so i can't say whether he is maniacal.

EDIT: I HAVE [Kc Ah]

lol wtf do u have

Re: 10/20 disgusting river spot
 

I'm trying to think of a hand other than AK or a set of 8s or 9s that makes sense here and I'm not coming up with much. Maybe he's got KK?

It's gotta be AK.

Re: 10/20 disgusting river spot
 

hmm well i doubt he's limp 3betting pf with 88 or 99... meanwhile whats up w that tiny rereaise... i guess QQ is a possibility but i think you're looking at KK or AK a lot here, so i'd call

Re: 10/20 disgusting river spot
 

does anyone think he could have 10Js here?

Re: 10/20 disgusting river spot
 

If I had to guess, you're either chopping or he has AQ. I'd call this pretty much always too fwiw.

Re: 10/20 disgusting river spot
 

i wouldn't put him on 88 or 99 because i'm sure he would have just called your raise PF. i don't put him on QQ because of the mini raise, seems like he sure wants action. if i had QQ i would raise way more to get you off the hand before the flop incase a A comes. most likeable hand here is an AK or he is just continuation bluffin

Re: 10/20 disgusting river spot
 

It's hard to construct a range when you know absolutely nothing about the player.

he most likely has AK

or AQ? I could see someone playing AQ like this. I think KK would be less likely then J10 or AQ. A set could play like this if he's real tricky type.

Unless he's a really crazy player, who would shove all in with KK in this spot and turn it into a bluff, when it has showdown value?

so AK &gt; J10,AQ,88,99,QQ &gt; KK, 1010, JJ &gt; AJs(?) &gt; air?

AK is a chop.
most of these hands you are behind.

if this guy is a huge maniac I'd call.

given info. I'd fold

Re: 10/20 disgusting river spot
 

oh u have AK? i would insta-call

Re: 10/20 disgusting river spot
 

You're chopping with a small part of his range, losing to most of the rest and beating a bluff (or KK/whatever he turned into a bluff).

I'd fold
