Most ppl are bluffing here sooo rarely i really dont like a call.

Isn't a shove better than a call? I don't like either, fwiw.

A shove is bad.

A call depends a lot on how often he calls preflop. It's usually a fold.

A shove is terrible because it's either nuts (or at least hand that calls shove) or not a boat? Yeah, I wasn't really thinking about the hand too much, just regurgitating a concept that I hear thrown around. A pretty bad post basically.. His range on the river does seem to be too defined here to try and raise him off of anything.

Hero is capable of bluffing here. Trust me.

Phresh · #7 03-20-2007, 06:18 AM

Nobody is debating that.

i think we'd need more reads than what you've given us. but without anything else, i would probably just fold turn, were you planning on checking the river if he checkd?

He's not that loose, he is calling a re-raise pre-flop OOP.

My guess is PPs makes up about 75- 85% of his range, and your hand is very readable after your flop check.

And in my experience if you shove the river, he calls fast.

Does Hero really never check behind on flop with an overpair?
