2pr against maniac - line check

fretelÃ¶o · #1 03-16-2007, 04:18 PM

Villain seems to be a German and runs by the german equivalent of "Executioner". Accordingly his play. He's on the table for the 2nd orbit and has managed to aquire stats of 76/46/2.3

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
2 folds, Hero raises, 2 folds, SB 3-bets, 1 fold, Hero calls.

Btw: PFR is a bit loose, no?

Flop: (7 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
SB bets, Hero raises, SB 3-bets, Hero caps, SB calls.

Turn: (7.50 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
SB bets, Hero calls.

River: (9.50 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)
SB bets, Hero raises, SB 3-bets, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 15.50 BB

Does that look about right, or is it better to raise the turn? Does it matter? Should I keep on raising at all after the flop cap? KTs, K7s, 77, TT are all very well in his range...

Fold this pre-flop.

The cap is fine I think against this guy, but I just call down from the turn once he continues to fire at me. Another line would be to just call the first flop raise and hit him on the turn.

Is he playing postflop also like a maniac? Or is he willing to back down with crap? For the first, against such a guy HU, 2pair is a monster, and I also prefer the flop call / turn raise line. According to stats, I'd play the river the same.

the pfr is pretty bad in general, but it's really bad with a maniac waiting to act behind you. K7 is not going to showdown UI.

i raise the turn. i'm not sure why you would wait and raise the river instead, especially against this opponent.

I wouldn't play this preflop.

I also don't get calling the turn to raise the river. If you instead raise/called the turn and called the river, I'd like it more.

tbh, I chickened out on the turn and then thought to myself: "You gotta raise once more here somewhere."

Agree about pre-flop. Otherwise the table was quite tight, so I took this as a semi-blindsteal attempt.

Fold pf. Flop is good. I´d raise turn.

Way too much FPS and MUBS going on in this forum. The turn call makes me want to puke.

I dont get why you are waiting till the river? Do you think he's more likely not to 3-bet then? Does it really matter?

I rather raise the turn and call down then.
