3barrel bluff

Colombo · #1 07-09-2007, 07:01 PM

Villain is 50/25 over 20 hands. Not a large sample but he's for sure a donk.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $4 BB (5 handed) internettexasholdem.com

UTG ($247.55)
MP ($394)
Hero ($495.70)
SB ($127.10)
BB ($306.60)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
2 folds, Hero raises to $14, 1 fold, BB calls $10.

Flop: ($30) 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)
BB bets $16, Hero raises to $40, BB calls $24.

Turn: ($110) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $52, BB calls $52.

River: ($214) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $389.7 (All-In), BB has to call $200 all in.

So is this spew or no? Figure my line is consistent with an overpair. Also, how is my turn bet? More or less? I wanted to set up a PSB river shove.

i guarantee that this dude calls you with 45 on the river and he might even call with ace high some percentage of the time. this is just not the board to run this kind of bluff against this kind of player.

you answered your own question didnt you? turn bet looks a bit iffy, bump it up a bit if youre planning on following through.

I like this a lot more when there's a reasonable draw that missed

so you decided to represent nothing at all in hopes that a bad calling station-ish player would make a big fold

umm no, not good

Okay, a few things I don't understand.

From my experience, alot of players will call turn bets in spots like these but fold on the river if put to the test. I don't think that a bet of 80 (or do you mean even bigger?) has that much more FE over a bet of 50. However by betting 50 I give him worse odds on the river to call my shove.

So are we looking for a more drawy board? Won't this just make him more apt to call since if he has a pair, he can put me on a draw, and if he has a draw, he now has something to call with?

Why doesn't this look like 44,TT+, even AT? Something in my bet sizing?

srsly this is really bad. ur 3 barreling a calling station.

turn bet sizing is really much too small too, but thats besides the point.
