2 50/100 hands commerce

[riverboatking]

one thing to note about the game is that there is a mega fish in the game with a ton of money, who will pretty much call anything before the flop, has no regard for money, and will often raise preflop. this has definately changed the dynamic of the game.

i have a somewhat TAG image preflop however i have shown some nice bluffs.

1)effective stacks 25K.
villian is tricky, very good player who is more then capable of making moves.

villian limps in LP, fish limps on in CO, SB calls, i raise $400 in BB with 77. (not standard but felt like mixing it up and building a nice pot in case i flopped good, default play is to check in this spot)

everyone calls.

flop 10-5-3 rainbow ($2500)

i lead for ~$1500 villian is only caller.

turn 10 putting two clubs on board.

i check call $1200...?

river blank 8.

i check villian fires 5K.

thoughts?


hand 2) fisherman greg is UTG, antonio esfandari is MP, fish is LP i'm on button with black AA.

UTG limps, MP limps, fish limps, i raise make it $500 all call.

flop comes 2-3-4 two hearts ($2000)

UTG checks, antonio leads for $600, fish calls, whats your plan?







ok now say we call flop and UTG (who is a very solid old school player, excellent hand reader, all around solid player) also calls.

turn comes a 7 putting two flush draws on the board and antonio leads for $1600, fish folds and you look over at UTG and he is breathing really heavily...

all thoughts and comments appreciated.
