AA Hand; Scary Turn Card

mayesie · #1 05-20-2006, 11:41 PM

Button is 15/1.6/1.8 after 8 orbits or so; not much to say about him. MP3 is 35/7.4/3 over the same time period, and can easily be induced to bluff when checked to.

Does anyone see anything aside from an obvious check/fold on the turn? I didn't even think twice about this. I felt 100% certain that the button's flop call & turn bet meant he had the Flush.

Anyone see it differently?

Thanks in advance!

Bumping this for the day crew.

Hmm. Dunno. Half pot bet on the turn by villian confuses me.

Is that asking to be re-raised or a weak bet (might have something like Ah and Kx)?

Wouldn't AK more likely raise the flop on that board?

Just let those rockets go

This is fine. We arent closing the action, and it would REALLY suck to get c/r by MP3 after we called 1/2 pot already.

Also, the J is a bad card because it 2pairs KJ.

This hand looks well played.

When they both flat call, you have to be worried one of them is on the flush draw. Once you check the turn, they both know what your scared of though.

When you play OOP (esp in a large pot), this comes as part of the territory. I think I'd be overplaying the hand by betting the turn against (2) villains here. Against (1) villain; I'd probably bet or check/call (depending on the opponent).
