Default You gamble this 3$ r?

I guess Im viewed as reasonably thight, at least pf op. But not as much post flopp and I have won a few pots wosd. 1 semidecent sized vs villain bob.

I have raised 3 times in a row, no showdown 1 one with a flopp.

Now I know I like to test ep`s on some lowboards to have them fold AK-J`s. But not so often as pure bluff. What do you make of this?

And I havent played more then 2 mtt`s over the lst 4-5 months, so easy ok?

Don't mind the preflop raise since you have a healthy stack, nor do I mind taking a stab on this ragged board. But once the BB raises, you're done with the hand. Sure, he might only have a 5 or something, but otherwise he's telling you that he has 66 beat when he checkraises here leaving himself only 6K behind. Believe him, and fold.

How is this even close to a fold? Really??? we're getting almost 3-1 odds on a call. We're no where near a 3-1 dog against BBs range.

Pretty sure we have to assume that villain's remaining 6K is basically in the pot, since we'd have to call it if he pushes any turn card. That being the case, I'm asking myself what villain is pot committing himself with that I beat holding 66 on this board. If you have a range that you think he's betting/pushing with here that we beat, I'd like to see it.

just adding overs to his range makes it a call. Whats your range for him??? 77-JJ,55,76???

I guess I just don't see him check-raising and pot committing himself with just overs. And yeah, my range is somewhere in there, plus the occasional A8, A9, A8s, A9s considering this is the $3R.

Maybe it's weak of me to think like this, but I just don't see villain making a play at this without some kind of hand. If it was an outright bluff with just two overs, why not just push instead of leaving himself 6K?

[/ QUOTE ]A) you said it yourself, it's a $3r
B) Given that hero is the PFR, and an EP PFR more likely has something that completely whiffed on this board, playing overs + draw aggressively isn't the craziest thing in the world. I'm not saying it's all (or a fold), but to to exclude the real possibility that hero is ahead is MUTB thinking.
