Crazy read NL50 full (only called with nut boat)...

[MrDempsey]

Guys on a Finnish forum think I am completely nuts, but yes, I only called on river with my nut boat (AAA99).

Had a pretty good read that the other dude had exactly pocket nines. He is a VERY VERY tight player (9/2), and check-miniraise on flop revealed he probably has pocket QQ or 99. If he "only" had QQ, I don't think he would've bet so much on the river with both A and K on board. He knows I'm a pretty tight player also.

And trust me, I've never ever played like this before. But now the read was so good that I just couldn't make myself to raise all-in. Of course had I 3-bet on flop, I wouldn't have this problem on river. But why would I 3-bet if I know the other dude has only 1 out and I can probably get all his money on later streets anyway. Don't want to scare him away.

So you put him on a set on flop & called why?

Do you really think he could fold a set of 9s or Qs to your 3bet/shove on flop?

[MrDempsey]

Well if anyone could fold 9-set there, maybe him. Why would I take chances? I don't have to get all his money right away, there are more betting rounds to come.

One more thing: had he not made quads on turn, I think he would've lead on turn instead of checking. Quads somehow "paralyzed" him and he thought that let the other guy do the betting. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Big mistake.. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Then on river he tries to make value desperately.

I was about 80% sure he had exactly what he had. QQ was 20%. So I almost had odds to call... [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] But of course I'm not gonna FOLD there, I at least have to SEE the quads to boost my self-confidence...
