Weird Line by SuperTuan
 

I've played with SuperTuan a few times on Stars and FTP, but I have different screen names, so I don't know that he's developed much of a read on me. He strikes me as aggressive and kind of weird but not particularly good for a MTT regular.

you're right. thats pretty freaking weird. I used to call a lot when I was confused like this. Now I fold a lot when im confused like this. Im pretty sure that neither of those are a healthy approach. So yeah, Ive got nothing to contribute.

Re: Weird Line by SuperTuan
 

So you check the flop, presumably for pot control, and then when the turn bricks you bet....full pot into someone whose checked twice. Fold turn, I expect him to lead a draw into you more often and you only beat a retarded bluff. Supertuan is damn spewy preflop but I doubt he's going to bluff you in this manner and I can def see a check twice with a better hand.

Re: Weird Line by SuperTuan
 

I agree that we're betting too much on the turn and I can't see calling on the end being profitable though I don't know who the villain is.

Re: Weird Line by SuperTuan
 

From what I see, if you bet the flop, he'd c/r you already and crai the turn.

As played, you check behind on the flop, his flop planned c/r delayed one street and became c/r the turn and push river. I think he's playing air (AJ,AK,)out of position.

Really? That'd be some elaborate 3-street bluff.

Re: Weird Line by SuperTuan
 

I think supertuan is actually really good and aggro. I think this is a stupid spot that i call to often in, and when the turn over 666QQ i look stupid... so fold i guess.

Re: Weird Line by SuperTuan
 

he's hoping you rivered your flush cuz you were drawing dead on the turn with a FD.

QFT. also full pot on turn seems pointless.
