[veganmav]

Dude claims to be an online pro.
I have seen him sit with 100k.
I have noted on him.
"donk bluff scary river card, raise gutshot on turn, cant fold ace high to turn checkraise"

28/16/1.0 wtsd 43 after 243 hands sorted for 7 to 10 handed

100/200
7 players


Pre-flop: (7 players) Hero is UTG with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">Hero raises</font>, UTG+1 folds, <font color="#cc0000">CO 3-bets</font>, 3 folds, Hero calls.

Flop: A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] , 2 players[/i])
Hero checks, <font color="#cc0000">CO bets</font>

Now I know he could have a better kicker, or A7 or A9.

But I think I have him beet most of the time.

He could have KK QQ JJ TT etc.
Also he could have KQ or QJ or as little as JTs or 55

I want a line better than check call down.
I hate giving him the chance to check through the turn, and call a river bet with KK.

But if I bet the turn, I don't think I can fold to a raise.

Any one have a better line?

checkraise lead....


ps what is his name?

[SparkyDog]

Could he really have A7 or A9 here?

Going off of your read I think you can checkraise the flop here and lead the turn. He might put you on spades and even decide to pop the turn with a worse hand. If he does raise the turn though can you fold to a river bet? If you can't, this line loses merit. But I don't have a better one.

As an aside, what makes you think you're good so often here? Off the table it looks like you're a fairly big dog to his range.

What's wrong with check/call check/call and maybe look for a scare card to donk the river with?

[veganmav]

he checks the turn too much, i miss value

[Hobbs.]

I like to c/c the flop and donkbet the turn a lot in situations like this, but this is at stakes *1/10

this guy raises garbage

i have seen him 3bet with 55, JTs he capped with A5s, 3bet with KJs etc.

Other than the capping with A5s (and again, it's situational), I don't see how any of these are either garbage or that bad at all, really.

Anyway. If he can't fold 55 on this board then checkraise and lead. You've set the parameters in such a way that there isn't much of an option otherwise. If he can fold 55 then sometimes you'll just have to settle for 1.5BB. It's pretty simple actually.

It sounds like you're waiting for someone to tell you that playing this hand a bit more offensively is okay sometimes.
