FTP750kg: Icky spot against Roothlus

TimberBee · #1 09-10-2007, 04:04 PM

No history or reads against villain Roothlus, but I know he is a regular at HSMTT.

I'm not sure what's best to do on the turn here. I don't know anything about what his cc range preflop and on the flop could be. I would guess something like KQ, but I have no idea. I'm not really sure what line to take on the turn? B/c, b/f, c/c, c/r and c/f all have their ups and downs. I think I figuered the best line, but I want to hear some responses.

You're both pretty deep. He's meant to be tight but his button calling range is still going to be somewhat wide so there's no reason to think you're beat yet but also no value in betting and good reason not to bloat the pot OOP on this board so check and then call.

Tricky one this. I do think it has to be a decisive move though. If you bet, I'd bet something like 5000, or check. Would probably depend upon how I felt at the time. I'd probably put him on something like QJ or KQ. There is a slim possibility he is slowplaying AA, or KK. I'd doubt QQ. AQ, 99, or 77 are the only concerns I think.

Bet fold if he shoves.
