(1/2) 2 Big hands in a row against same opponent
Here are two hands against the same opponent from a short-handed session on Party. Had been playing against him for all of the session and he seemed pretty decent without being great or getting out of line. Appeared to be able to change gears, or maybe he just caught some cards for a brief period! Anyway, I'd switched to LAG at this stage and was (trying to be) the one running the table.
Is this first hand anything other than the nuts? How often do you think it's a naked A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]?

Anyone go for a check/raise on this flop or just bet out? The preflop raiser was quite tight and hadn't done a whole lot of anything yet.

Re: (1/2) 2 Big hands in a row against same opponent
H1. I think you see a naked Ac here a decent amount of the time. I just think that the small bet mixed with your small reraise, makes it pretty easy to rep the NF with any Ac tbh.
H2. I'm not really worred about TTT. I wouldn't be suprised to see KK+FD alot here. Other than that, I think its a big combo draw with the NFD like you said. Don't like a c/r on the flop. Mutli way pots with flush and straight draws arn't ones to get cute on.

Re: (1/2) 2 Big hands in a row against same opponent
Hand 1 looks super-suspicious. He doesn't make his pot-sized reraise until everyone else folds, leaving you heads-up. Also, you're shallow enough that you'd think he'd play it slower if he really had the nuts. I'd definitely look this up. If nothing else, you can always hit the nine of clubs.
Hand 2: I don't much like the weak flop bet in a multi-way pot on a coordinated board. I'd just hammer this for the whole pot. The turn's fine though.

Re: (1/2) 2 Big hands in a row against same opponent
There's nothing wrong with betting ~2/3 pot on monotone boards. I've started doing it regularly and I've been really happy with the results. It does encourage people to come over the top of you more often though so you need to call down a little lighter.

Re: (1/2) 2 Big hands in a row against same opponent
Hmmmm... although I don't play 6max, I'll still hazard some comments (just bear in mind I'm a FR player).
Hand 1 I definitely fold. Hand 2 I rather like your call. That's a pretty weird TT line for villain OOP on that board imo, and stack-depth is such that you're getting pretty decent odds. I can see some rationale for TT playing like that, particularly given your self-description for the moment. But it sure seems like he doesn't care much about possibly giving free cards. I'll normally fold middle set to a raise unless I have a pretty good redraw, but here I don't think I can--although I definitely sometimes pay for morbid curiosity... [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] His line almost looks more like KK with spades to me--or maybe even picking up 2 pair with spades if he's pretty gamy.

Re: (1/2) 2 Big hands in a row against same opponent
Yeah, I didn't notice that. I personally don't like either one of those, although I do think it's tenable on a flush board.
Anyhow, in 4-way pots, I'm not very fond of sub-pot bets except on paired boards. I also think it makes it significantly more difficult to define where you're at.
