How do you think this hand was played? The other guy in the hand was a complete looney raising and betting into every hand.

I don't like it.

A 10 is a very likely holding for CO. So is an overpair.

You could lead flop to see where you're at, or lead turn. Raise somewhere or atleast fold river... people rarely triple barrel bluff.

pretty fishy brotha, he minraised pf so i might raise and bet a lot of flops if i was gonna play this hand. i usually dump weak aces oop to a raise unless i had a read but i might try to steal this or dump it cause he's kind of short.

his overbet on the turn is a little strange, he might be bluffing with overcards putting you on a draw, he could be on a draw, or he could just be valuebetting aces who knows, but he is betting three streets strong, which obviously he'd do with a strong hand like a set or maybe a bluff if he thinks you're weak. do you have a read? taking this line with no read is pretty sketchy.

Terrible, terrible play. Check calling like that is a great way to lose a big pot with a marginal holding. Check raise the flop, and if he calls youre probably beat. Wait for a better spot when you have a bigger hand like a set to play a big pot with him.

I think based on your read, it's fine. There are definitely enough people like this who will bluff on all three streets. Your hand has plenty of value against his range. Against someone specifically like this any bet or raise will probably slow him down, so inducing bluffs here might be your best play to get his stack in.

you beat exactly nothing

its one thing to make slimmer calls, but here, you beat exactly nothing.

rr pre-flop, crai on flop... if he's really that aggressive, then you by far have the best of it with 2nd pair, top kicker.

The main question here is your read, this is ok if villan is a complete retard that bluffs almost every hand to the river. otherwise it is terrible.

Well played, second pair is a monster against any random hand villain might hold.

I quite like it, however I generally only do this with TP (tx).

He's a fish so I read his turn bet as a bluff, at this point you either fold here or go with you read and check-call off you stack [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Other than that I also like the line of RR preflop and CRing AI if you connect to the flop.
