Over pair against LAG with flush possibilty

tms · #1 06-29-2006, 12:35 AM

Villan is a big LAG with a VP$IP around 70% and had bet/raised a few pots with absolute air. I was scared about the flush possibility but thought my jacks were still good solely based on my read. Would you play the same?

do you have a read on his pfr? (over how many hands?)
i like 3betting the flop. he could be raising the flop with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Kx and a ton of other hands that you are ahead of that contain a single spade.

I would 3bet the flop, bet/call the turn and check/call the river. If he's got a spade, you need to make him pay to draw. If he's got a pair, you've probably got him beat.

I am far, far more worried about the double-paired board than I ever will be about the flush draw.

I don't think there's really any other way to play this. The only thing you beat is absolute air that's not 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]s, and since he's a LAG, that's a possibility.

thanks for the input. Yea I wanted to bet that turn, but decided at the last second to check it. Villan showed Kc6d, lol
