FW 20/40 hand vs. Nick M.
Foxwoods 20/40. A horribly loose regular limps UTG, another horribly loose regular limps in MP, Nicky raises on the button, SB folds, I call in BB with Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], they call. Four way pot.
Flop J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Checked to Nick who bets, I call, others fold. Heads up. Turn 4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. I check, he checks. River Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. I check with the intention of calling. |

Re: FW 20/40 hand vs. Nick M.
oooh... nicky?
i'm almost hesitant to say that you're hand is no good here.. b/c a lot of guys here dont know how ABC nicky plays. c/c is the line i'd probably take but dont expect to win this very often at show down |

I don't know Nicky, but against most regular passive live players I'm bet/folding this river.

He's the winningest player in the history of the 20/40 game at Foxwoods. He plays pretty TAG. He's certainly not a great poker player by any means, but plays this particular game very well and knows all of the regular players and their tendencies. |

By checking, you are basically resigning yourself to showing down the best hand, or paying off a better one. Bet here and hope he calls with a pocket pair or A-K that checks behind.

[/ QUOTE ] I disagree. This player is not checking behind, and he will stab at the river with A high. I like the OP's play this time. TT [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] |
