River is pretty much trips, boat or air(45, 6x) right?

i like b/3b on flop, your hand is really strong, like 50/50 w/ an overpair and he likely folds some of them. turn just get him in if he only has 90 more.

whats the problem on the river? CALL!

I dont like the b/3b on the flop. You are an underdog to an overpair and the other hands in the calling range have you crushed.

[mdkrahn]

I didn't raise the turn because I figured if I'm ahead, then his likely holdings were overpairs 88-JJ, 6x, and on occasion pure air.
If he has a pair, then probably can't stand to call a raise. 6x is drawing to 4 outs, and if they hit the 8, then I get paid.



ejay, Sabr, thoughts on river?

[ejay]

its hard to get a read of 20 hands but this line seems like he has you beat.

[SABR42]

I like how you played it actually, and call river as guys with 75% VPIP do stupid [censored]. It's 20 hands, but it's really hard to play 15 out of 20 hands and not be a maniac.

snap call

I like your thoughts about turn play.

Btw, i am dying for a result in this one, as it's been breaking me, reading the hand over and over again.

I think villain pushes any river, and i don't feel his play is all that strong! (this is based on the limited stats and his stacksize). To me, his flop play is all out donk, although i cannot exclude A7 as an obvious part of his range, i feel you are well ahead most of the time. I wouldnt be surprised if he turned up A6, A5 or even weaker! His check-gayraise tells me he is afraid to get his very limited stack in, rather than actually getting value for a big hand.
I call, assuming that i'm beat around 33% of the time...

[EWS87]

ugh this is such a gross spot...id be 99% sure i was beat and then call...and then hell show 66...idk its a pretty sick hand...maybe raise turn so you dont have this decision but idk

[l3auble]

get it in on the turn man
