Default Some tricky spots on all streets (stars 25/50)

Villian is a regular but I rarely play on stars so I don't know anything about them really, they have been playing aggresivly in position 4 handed on another table but I haven't seen anything too too crazy.


Thoughts on the whole hand?

i 3 bet the flop 100% of the time, because I'm weak and people pay me off.

i bet the turn if i failed to 3 bet the flop.

river ?????????????? puke and call. (your prolly going to see 9 10 or QQ if your beat) J Q, J K if your good.

i dont mind your play, would u like to explain why you dont bet the turn here? as playd, i think the river is a call, raising is definitely out of the questions are there are a decent amount of hands he could be value betting here

his overcall preflop makes me think this is 333 more than JJJ, QQQ, or KKK. so call. but he's got one of those most of the time fer sure.

also, i don't mind the turn check but i also don't mind a bet, it can go either way depending on how aggro you've been. if you've been active, then just try to get it in. i think his overcall preflop is the crucial point of the hand.

Why would villain check the turn?

no reason except the only draw getting there and an overcard making it less likely for a naked J to call again

given the action, i think his range is made up of a ton of medium strength 2 pair hands and a straight of course. i think only the straight and an oddly played KK call a river raise, even 33 could find the fold button.

i prob jsut call the river. i hate checking the turn against an aggro player though.

I agree...this looks very much like 33. No way he has T9 here. Maybe he has JJ but it's more probable that he has either KJ or 33.

I thought this was a pretty easy river call...maybe even a raise. We can rule out T9, KK, and QQ.

Im not sure why you are able to rule out the turned nuts, I see this small flop checkraise from draws all the time, usually they would bet the turn bet lots of people love to slowplay.
