Default 0.25/0.50 AK unimproved with position

Villain is 14.4/7.5/2.2 with a 50% WtSD over 200 hands, I consider him a muppet, yet he isn't as bad as some others.

Party Poker
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $0.25/$0.5
9 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is MP2 with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
UTG folds, <font color="#cc0000">UTG+1 raises</font>, MP1 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero 3-bets</font>, 5 folds, UTG+1 calls.

Flop: 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (7.4SB, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">UTG+1 bets</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises</font>, UTG+1 calls.

Turn: T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (5.7BB, 2 players)
UTG+1 checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, UTG+1 calls.

River: 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (7.7BB, 2 players)
UTG+1 checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, UTG+1 calls.

Results:
Final pot: 9.7BB


I raise the flop on the off chance that he folds, and he might give me a free card on the turn. Standard? Call a 3-bet? Then what about the turn bet, I catch a lot more outs here, but apparently he doesn't want to fold, and I might well be behind here. A checkraise would be ugly. Checking behind is better, no?

:g:
Nice catch fish. I think this hand is played fine ... but the flop raise is kind of tinnish.

BTW your read is retarded. Either you have some specifics such as he cold calls to much or folds to much but I can assure you he is not a muppet (ldo). Villan is probably a TAG multitabler and you are very likely behind on the flop.

[i][edit]Which in turn makes your turn bet questionable ... hmmm now Im confused.

[edit II] what he said \/

O'RLY?, you see this guy grinding 14.5/4/2?

Imagine its Animal on the other side of that table next time you use a read on a TAG and let us know how it goes [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I like checking the turn and taking the free card. I have a feeling against a player with those stats in UTG+1 that he will have a mid pocket pair or AT-AK based on his call of your 3-bet preflop. A check raise here would be disgusting and I would have c/c the river UI.

this guy is a rock. don't raise the flop against him. call and fold the turn unimproved. since you did raise the flop, take the free card. he isn't going to fold a better hand.

Thanks Miles, I will use the tilt-inducing river check with the nuts in the future. *lol*

Yeah, after looking at it, betting the turn is stupid. On a sidenote, I have no reads, I am playing 8 tables myself. My only note on him is "Calls down PF aggressor HU with middle pair", which might even be justified. But you seriously wouldn't raise the flop here? o.0
