Default Re: Live 5/10 deep -- Did I get the most out of it?

[ QUOTE ]
it's pretty hard to look at this without being results oriented, but what generic reads i can gather from this hand that could have been used by you are:

1) this guy calls OOP preflop with complete cheese

[/ QUOTE ]

Not that uncommon in this game with these deep stacks. Half the table was sitting on between 300B and 1000BB and the half between 1000BB and 5000BB.

Pre flop play was pretty lose, but tended to tighten up considerably post flop. Most of the players read well enough to make it mostly a 2nd level game. This guy was one of my targets as he did not read as well as most.

2) this guy calls the flop with two [censored] backdoor draws

[/ QUOTE ]

His play wasn't that bad considering my image with the tendency to show up with total crap from time to time and he was going for a C/R on the turn. Villain observed a hand from the night before where I called a RR PF from two predictable players from SB with 32o and stacked the EP raiser. So he knows I could show up here with total air.

Question 1
i wouldn't try to get cute on the turn against a guy like this. he's way more likely to call when he semi-improves then bluff on the river. i'd expect to get looked up on the turn by Qx, gutterballs, turned BD spade draws and obv Ax.

Question 2
for a live game a shove is a fairly big raise, but his hand looks like Ax+ at this point, so i guess it can't be awful

With this additional information, would you change your answers above?
