where is the fold button?
villain is a really tough tag reg (18/14 over a large sample; probably a big winner and a 2+2er). you guys can pm me if you want to know his name. anyway, he kicks my ass alot, usually by 3betting me pf. he probably views me as a lag that can sometimes be reckless.
flop and turn play. discuss. fwiw, this guy double barrels alot, so that may make flop play [censored] or something. i think i played this one poorly.

Re: where is the fold button?
Fold preflop 100% or re raise, calling sucks a whoel lot.
lead or cr the flop, as played raise 300 and fold to a push |

Re: where is the fold button?
i'm pretty sure it's okay to post screennames. it helps especially if they're a regular (2P2er or not.)
seeing as how you think this guy is tough to play against and he is taggish, i think a pf fold is in order. it depends on how he views you but i think a flop lead would be good. unless he pushes you around postflop a lot i think you could safely fold to a raise but he could still call with weaker hands. as played turn sucks a lot but i'd probably call? i guess. i don't think a c/r is a good idea but folding seems too weak. if river blanks and he bets big again maybe consider folding. jkratzer |

3-bet preflop. Since you didn't, bet out on the flop.

Re: where is the fold button?
c/r works here, fold to a 3-bet. Call works too, and then I like a river lead. He'll be unlikely to value bet AK after you call down big bets on this board, but he should probably call a bet. Fold to raise there too.
If you check river and he fires big, I agree with the fold. I just dont see him betting 3 big barrels with AK here. |

Re: where is the fold button?
I don't mind c/c turn since you c/c flop, and then c/r river unimproved. It feels weak, but it would take a lot for him to value bet that river with a worse hand, you'd reallly only have a bluff catcher on the end.
P.S. I just found this out a week or so ago, it's on the left, next to the call/check button. Disclaimer: Knowing where this button is has not in any way, shape, or form improved my results. |

Re: where is the fold button?
I think calling is slightly better than CR here. Although you're probably ahead, we don't want to be playing a huge pot against this guy with bottom two pair. I'd say call and lead 1/2 to 2/3 on the river unless it's A,K,T, or 5. Definitely fold to a raise.

Re: where is the fold button?
I feel like that block is transparent vs a good player on the river and opens us up to bluffs unless phil will bet 1/2 pot on the river with the nuts, which I highly doubt he will.

Were you strictly looking for a Q or a J? For me I would raise up this flop the majority of the time and shutdown if he either 3 bets me on the flop or checkraises my cbet on the turn. I would bet about 70% of the pot on most safe turns and reevaluate on river depending on what river cards. Most of time a check behind on river would be fine if you are able to reach the river safley. |
