BvB antifloat turns ugly

donger · #1 03-19-2007, 11:59 PM

Villain in this hand is a 30/19/2.1 AP regular with a decent bag of tricks.
My original plan in this hand was some blend of turn screwplays and just calling down as I think he's floating me here or just calling down w/ A high and betting for a free SD a good portion of the time.

I don't understand your turn play. This looks like a nice spot to either checkraise or bet out.

Weird hand.

I think you can safely bet this river and take it down a good part of the time. Your play looks just like a whiffed Ace high, and as gehrig said BB has shown no love at all for his hand.

Turn: I would bet here. If your opponent is tricky, then I think he would probably raise the flop in this spot, and there's also a chance he might pop the turn with air.

River: When the awful river card falls I would bet out as a desperation bluff, as he'll have a hard time calling if his high card is less that a Q.

Just my opinion...

I was just trying to mix up my play here and get him to put some extra bets in the pot drawing to < 3 outs. The board is dry enough that he wont take many shots with garbage if I follow through.

Too late to edit.

Bet river because your hand looks a lot like A high. C/R turn because when I go for turn c/r I raise instead of calling.

if villain has any outs at all in this hand, it's a minimum of four, and perhaps as many as seven...

It's not a bad line. The board is pretty garbage-ish and an aggressive player will take a stab at the pot but may not peel with unimproved overcards.
