109r-- River Decision against Brynkenney
 

Well i just got moved to this table, and Bryn 3 bets lighther than anyone, so thats my only read. His line is really wierd here, and it looked a lot like AcXc, maybe Kcxc, not sure, but his river bet looks real fishy, thoughts on all streets?

ack his sizing scares me here. it sorta like he knows you have a hand to c/c him off ace high or a missed draw so he's betting hard for value. I guess I like a fold, but I am a showdown monkey especially when draws miss so I prob call in game.

i kinda dislike your turn bet, i guess you are trying to get value from a draw or ace high but do you really want to face a semibluff-raise? you got a good turn, i'd c/c him on the turn and probably c/f the river. You just got moved here, is he really going to 3bet you that light with no antes in play?

Agree with everything Bakes said.

Re: 109r-- River Decision against Brynkenney
 

If you are going to doubt something, doubt your limits. But fold here.

You'd have to think pretty hard to come up with a hand that he could have that you can beat here. AQ or AJ of clubs? The K is a scare card.

Yes, he could have 3bet, called a turn bet, and made a big bet on the river with nothing, but if he did, he deserves to win this one. Plus, the check behind on the flop after reraising pre looks like strength.

dunno...by playing it kinda weak you put yourself in a touh spot...I think I lead that flop and play the hand based on on how he reacts...your hand looks like what it is from the preflop call to th flop check to the weak turn bet...K is a great scare card for him...as played I think I fold river but I would try to take the lead at some point especially given your read

Re: 109r-- River Decision against Brynkenney
 

I call and curse how good this [censored] runs when he shows me AK

Re: 109r-- River Decision against Brynkenney
 

actually i dont think playing it "weak" is the problem, our hand isn't very big at all.

Re: 109r-- River Decision against Brynkenney
 

1200 is too light on the turn and invites this ugly spot here. since we got here, if he plays well (I don't know him at all), you can basically flip a coin. if not, you can probably fold.

Re: 109r-- River Decision against Brynkenney
 

he's got nines full

Re: 109r-- River Decision against Brynkenney
 

"all it takes is confidence"... fold
