top two deepstack
 

I have been playing fairly TAG, about 25/18 or so, and have been extremely aggressive with strong hands. I was caught AI bluffing once, but most of the time I have shown down a real hand. Villain seems sensible, but I have not played many hands with them. They are certainly not a fish anyway

Thoughts? I considered a set unlikely as I am pretty sure they would have 4bet the turn with one, but I have no real read to tell me that, just a hunch based on my experience with non fish microstakes players.

I'll give it a go. Firstly, I'm not completing sb with J9o.
flop bet seems ok.
on the turn he min-raises your bet and you min-raise back wtf? He shouldn't have J6/J4 since he limped pf and you say he's decent. Nor should he have 46/69 or he would prob raise flop. He might have 75s/87s which get nice odds with your min-bet. Also, I have seen stranger plays with sets.

If I'm villain I'm not calling your river bet with anything you beat

I'm definitely completing w/J9o. Someone tell me why this is bad [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

And yes, what was up with your minraise? If you're gonna raise, make it a real raise.

Re: top two deepstack
 

Don't know if it's bad or not, I just don't like playing meh-hands oop. Maybe I'm just tight [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I'd say fold pre-flop.

Turn 3bet should be much bigger....like 22. Then push river.

Would you complete with J9s? How about 109o? Kxs? Axs? FWIW I complete with all of these but I'd like to know if that's bad.

Re: top two deepstack
 

J9s yea usually. T9o usually if there's 2 limpers. Axs usually if I'm not raising. Kxs usually if there's 2 limpers or 1 limper from EP.

Re: top two deepstack
 

well turn 3bet wasnt a minraise, but yeah, i admit is was too small, I would not normally do that. I think I was being very silly and betting to see if he had a set more than to protect my hand or get value. Very poor show I know. I would normally raise much bigger. But I swear completing the SB with J9o is not a mistake at all; One gappers are almost all playable if you can get in a multiway pot that cheap!
