$109 Big Pocket Pair, A showing, 3 flush flop, two pair turn, Game On?

Player what?
How do you handle your business in spots like this.


Betting it out has it's merits, but getting it all in on the flop just can't be right.
Turn seems straight forward to me, but was I right?
Finally, the most interesting of streets, the river. Any value in betting there. Obv. I just checked behind.

How you handle the queens here?

I dont think I mind gettin it all in on the flop here, unless were up against exactly AxKd were 1.4/1 against if he has an ace, and thats assuming he wants to play for his stack without tptk on a flush board. I think lead out and be prepared to take it all the way, balls to the wall style.

as played yeah i think its fine, Im not betting the river ever.

Betting the river is Ok, if you wanna make a value bet. Based on the betting, most of the time villain doesn't have an Ace, and if it's a crappy one, you're not getting raised.


Checking is fine too, and what I'd do, but I would bet if I knew the opponent.

[Pudge714]

I like how you played it

So most of the time he hasnt got an ace and folds, and when he has an ace he's not raising, wheres the value here?

When villain caught an 8 or had a PP lower than you. Like I said, I only do it against opponents I know, who wouldn't bet an Ace like that, which is also at the $22s right now, not the $109s, which may change the answer.

me too.

room for a thin vbet against some on the riv.

PF raise is standard because you have QQ (!!!) in position.

I really like the flop check since you have showdown value, all sorts of good cards happen on the turn, and betting out sucks if you get raised. Pot control, nice.

Turn call is really nice, no reason to blow Villain off a hand you have crushed.

River is good, but I likely make that thin value bet on the end.

i value bet the river, everything else is good.
