25nl 88 put to the test
Poker Stars, $0.10/$0.25 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 5 Players
LegoPoker Hand History Converter BTN: $61.35 SB: $23.90 BB: $27.70 <--20/18/4 over 50ish hands BB: $21.80 UTG: $14 Hero (CO): $27.35 <font color="blue">First time playing with villain. He seemed to be a tag. I felt he was pretty aggro because he had 3-bet preflop twice against others in previous orbits. My only read.</font> Pre-Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (CO) 2 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $1</font>, BTN folds, SB calls $0.85, BB calls $0.75 Flop: ($2.85) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players) SB, checks, BB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $2.25</font>, SB folds, <font color="red">BB raises to $7.50</font>, Hero calls $5.25 <font color="blue">Pre flop, I had his range at 22-99, Axs, sc's, and possibly a KQs type of hand. After his raise, I felt I was only behind 99, 55 and possibly A4s. I would also be slightly behind/flipping against something like ATdd so I felt re-raising would allow him to call only when he was ahead. I called to re-eval turn since a blank for him would make me a decent favorite. On turn, I would slow/shut down on any diamond or ace. Any other card and I am firing. </font> Turn: ($16.95) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players) <font color="red">BB bets $10</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $18.85 and is All-In</font> <font color="blue">With his lead, I am thinking monster or a draw. I felt I had enough equity to gamble, so I gambled. </font> Thoughts? |

Re: 25nl 88 put to the test
seems pretty good to me, your read about him 3-betting a lot probably rules out an over pair. you're good here a lot but i expect to see a jack every now and then (aJ, KJ)

Re: 25nl 88 put to the test
I tend to make these plays w/ PPs since i hate playing them only for set value, but these spots get pretty tricky at times. I think you're thought process is good and I expect him to call as a dog that's getting odds. WP overall. Good players will play hard whenever they smell +EV, and I think that you're doing a good job of that here. Be prepared for pretty wild swings from these situations though.
