Tricky Spot with KK

BingBangBoom · #1 08-05-2007, 10:11 PM

Villan seems to be pretty tight, maybe even a rock. Knowing that am i to assume he only holds TT or a 3 here when getting aggressive (not sure what the minraise meant but helped me narrow his range non the less)? By checking the river I kinda have to call the shove right? Was my line pretty standard or would any of you advise a different line? I appreciate any input.

If you dont plan on ever folding, why are you taking such a pansy line?

i re raise flop, as played on the flop c/r that turn... he could have JJ, QQ here easily

Looking at his stack, c-raising him all in as opposed to calling it on the river.
Looks fine, and I dont see why he can play some other hands this way as well.

Point taken...i just knew this guy was a rock so I was unsure and felt WAWB

CRAI on the turn. If he's a rock he never has a 3. As played through the turn shove the river yourself. Basic zeebo theorem at that point.

River is an easy shove as played.

Not tricky at all, you (inadvertantly) let him hang himself with AT, or value bet himself out of a stack with QQ/JJ... or let 44 get ya. If all you're worried about is TT or 44 because AA is impossible (woulda raised), and your hand is obviously underrepped by the river, its an easy call.

Fine if you do it on purpose (rocks are aggressive with good hands, right?). Nothing wrong with standard turn shove though.
