NL100 - rivered an underfull on big board. Value?

gumpzilla · #1 11-02-2006, 10:25 PM

My opponent seems good and aggressive. Has three bet me a couple of times, has played some blind D against me, has shown he can float me PF with garbage on the button.

I decided that I frequently miss value on the river and went for it here. Good idea?

Will you call if he shoves?

I'm not sure what the question is.

I'll preface this by saying that I'm definitely not an expert.

Looks like he was trying to checkraise the turn with a weak A and you checked behind. (I'm assuming a weak ace because of the check/call on the flop)

I would try to get it all in here.

That is a key part of the question. I decided I likely wouldn't and thus that I don't really like it.

Do you value bet the river?

I agree, I think he has a weak A that was suited, then his bet on the river was to see if his ace was good, I would shove all in.

That's crazy talk. You don't think he ever shoves w/ an A or a flush? If he has a better boat he's just gonna get my money.

If I thought this guy was some random idiot, sure. He really isn't, as far as I can tell. Assuming he has any respect for me whatsoever, shoving a flush seems like a terrible idea, as I can't call with anything other than a boat. An A shoving might at least move me off a flush, but I doubt he's bluffing with a bad A in this spot.

I would raise bigger. About $45 on the river, because it's hard to put you on that hand. Your hand doesn't look like a FH, because you would have bet the turn with AQ or A9.

I'm also calling a push.

FH > flush.
