How do you control the pot OOP?
Villain is a super fish, VPIP 60+, WtSD 40%, etc.
Party Poker No Limit Holdem Ring game Blinds: $0.50/$1 8 players Converter Stack sizes: UTG: $98 UTG+1: $99.40 Hero: $124.35 MP2: $100 CO: $103.50 Button: $194.28 SB: $90.50 BB: $195.90 Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is MP1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $4</font>, 2 folds, Button calls, 2 folds, UTG+1 calls. Flop: K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] ($13.5, 3 players) UTG+1 checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $10</font>, Button calls, UTG+1 folds. Turn: 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($33.5, 2 players) <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $20</font>, Button calls. River: T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] ok, now what? At this point should I make another value bet? Check it down? I'm a little deeper than usual, so it seems like some sort of pot control is in order but I am not sure what would happen if he makes a big bet on the end. |

Check. Call a smallish bet here if he pots it I fold

Check the flop because it is as drawless as they come. It is unlikely the next card changes anything. If he bets then you call and have some information. If flop is checked through, value bet the turn and river.

It also squeezes some value from out of medium pairs and worse kings, and it cuts your losses when you're beat. Pretty standard wa/wb stuff, right? |

In position, I will do it if I think villain is a solid player or will take a a stab at the pot on the turn. OP asked how he could control the pot, not betting on that dry flop is one way. I don't believe that line is optimal, but it does keep the pot smaller most of the time. I think both of us would be happy to get our stacks in on the river with that board, but that wasn't what OP asked, was it? |

Its 3 handed on the flop and we're not in position, theres no way I'm checking. I'd like to at least buy the button for the rest of the hand.

Why bet less than the pot on the flop and turn?

Re: How do you control the pot OOP?
(Villain = super fish) + (Hero holds TPTK) = control the pot????????????
So many times people say "don't play your cards, play your opponent's cards". Well, this is one of those times where you want to play you cards b/c their all that matters. Get it all in. |
