200 NL Fun Hand

[heresjohnny]

6 Max

Effective Stacks of 240

Villain was 30/6/1.1 over 100 hands

I'm something like 26/16/4

Villain limps UTG. 1 more limper. SB completes. I make it 10 from the BB with K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

UTG raises to 30. I just call. Who likes a 3-bet?

Flop (65)

A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

I check. He bets 16. I decide to call.

Turn (100)

K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

I check. He bets 36. I call.

River

J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

I check he bets 45. I call.

Comments on all streets appreciated.

Raise more pre-flop against 3 limpers.

4-bet pre-flop and get it in.

Flop is good.

Raise turn.

Raise more preflop, I raise to 13-14. And I most often just 4-bet this preflop, I'm more inclined to call ip.

I think c/c on the flop is good, but you need to put in lots of more action on the turn. He can have tons of worse hands that will pay off, AK/AT/AxQd to name a few (I don't think he's folding AQ/AJ either). I lead out 70-80 on the turn with the intention of pushing the river. Villain could easily take a pot control line with AQ/AJ and whatever is in his range, but after you called his preflop re-raise and flop bet I don't think he's very likely to bluff the turn if we check. Also I think he'll pay off with worse hands if we bet rather than c/r.

Given your turn check, both crai and c/r to ~130 is ok. Just calling is not ok at all.

I'd be scared to 4bet preflop against a limp-3better. But your preflop raise should have been bigger.

Flop is fine. Turn get it all-in.

You'll get stacked postflop most often against AA either way, so your preflop action should be designed to optimize your value vs the rest of his range.
