Here's an interesting hand from the Borg 40/80 this weekend.
SB is loose preflop and a bit overly aggro postflop, though he is by no means a terrible player. Thus far this session, he has gotten out of line postflop a number of times. For example, on one hand he limped from EP with a weak offsuit King, called a raise from the BB, and raised a low card flop with nothing but a King overcard. BB is a solid player and likely a winner at this level. I have played with him several times and feel that I have a good read on him. He will often lead into a raiser or check/raise if heads up to "see where he is." For example, a few weekends ago I raised UTG with red QQ and he was the only caller in the blinds. He check/raised a K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] flop, bet the turn which I think was an offsuit 5, then bet the river in the dark. The river paired 9s, I called, and he mucked and said that the 9 counterfeited him. On to the hand. I open raise 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] from the button. SB calls and BB calls. The flop is 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB checks, BB leads, I raise, and both call. I raised to drive SB and his Ace/whatever out, but he called anyway. His range is fairly wide, so his call could mean a gutshot, a flush draw, a small pair, or even just A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]x. The turn is the 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. SB checks and BB leads again and I call. I felt that the bet was very fishy, that 6 of my straight outs might be clean, and that I might even have the best hand. Now SB check/raises. How's my play so far? I was finished with the hand at that point and was going to muck, assuming that BB called. BB went into the damn tank, though, and after a good 90 seconds he mucked his hand. What's my line now? |
