Default Re: 10/25 vs maxEmus

dunno if this helps much, but i usually play what i consider to be pretty straightforward. Also, maxEmus and i have very little history as i do practice some form of table selection.

I obv. think this is a great card for him to dbl barrel on. And i think there is a chance he check calls or c/rs a strong ace on this turn. So yea, i expect if he has an Ace he doesn't lay it down. And yes, i def will occasionally call with a set here on the flop. If i have some free time i'll try and put a range on him and see how the math works out.

I think the big question is if he calls or folds KK-99.

I don't think this is the big question - if he is going to call any ace, he is smart enough to realize KK-99 are identical. I think the big question is if he bets the turn with those hands. If he bets them, I think he is planning on calling the shove.

I think he usually would not bet them or an ace, so I like the shove.

it would be pretty nasty if Max bet here with a set to induce a bluff.

It's "nasty" to bet a set on the turn on a draw heavy board as the preflop raiser against a guy who smooth called the flop? OK. Anyways, I agree with everything else you wrote. And I think OP's line is pretty standard. Also, if OP is loose-ish, he could definitely have a ragged aces up after having called preflop with a suited ace.

It would be even nastier if he bet it for value though!!!!

I like this, If villain is good he knows that an ace is a good card to two barrell and without history he will have a hard time looking you up with 99-kk and a lot of aces. Even if you get called you have 9 outs.

This is true hes a lag player def capapble of double barreling, in addition raising the turn is a strong play he can easily put u on a set or 2 pair here

I dont like this against max. but thats probably just becuase of the way he plays against me. He is not folding KK when he makes that bet against me...

I think me and you having little history together is a big part of this hand. Most "unknown" opponents will not just call with a set especially on UB where everyone seems over aggro as possible. The turn is definetly a good card to double barrel if i have air but if I am betting the turn for value I am not folding it given the fact ur line looks fishy and the pot odds the pot is giving me.

AZK PM me your name on ub?
