Trouble playing vs 46/8/1.2
I have difficulty playing hands vs this type of villains. Maybe it's because I haven't made a hand to value bet them to death. I just sat down and this happened:
------------------ HAND #1 ------------------ Full Tilt Poker, $0.25/$0.50 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 6 Players LeggoPoker.com - Hand History Converter MP: $48.55 CO: $48.45 BTN: $52.25 Hero (SB): $49.50 BB: $33.70 UTG: $65.70 Pre-Flop: K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (SB) UTG calls $0.50, 3 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $2.50</font>, BB folds, UTG calls $2 Flop: ($5.50) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players) <font color="red">Hero bets $4.25</font>, UTG calls $4.25 Turn: ($14) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players) <font color="red">Hero bets $9.25</font>, UTG calls $9.25 River: ($32.50) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players) Hero checks, <font color="red">UTG bets $15</font>, Hero folds Results: $32.50 Pot ($1.60 Rake) UTG mucked and WON $30.90 (+$14.90 NET) I am not sure whether it's a spew betting the turn vs this loose player that doesn't like to fold. Now to the hand in question. It's similar to hand #1 where 7 doesn't really change the board. Considering history I decided to preserve the bet and get there on the river. I didn't and I'm seriously considering betting this river. With our history in mind is this any good? Comments on both hands are appreciated. Thanks! ------------------ HAND #2 ------------------ Full Tilt Poker, $0.25/$0.50 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 6 Players LeggoPoker.com - Hand History Converter UTG: $43.05 MP: $47.70 CO: $57.30 Hero (BTN): $50 SB: $31.45 BB: $82.85 Pre-Flop: T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (BTN) UTG calls $0.50, 2 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $2.50</font>, SB folds, BB calls $2, UTG folds Flop: ($5.75) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players) BB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $4.25</font>, BB calls $4.25 Turn: ($14.25) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players) BB checks, Hero checks River: ($14.25) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players) BB checks, Hero ? |

Re: Trouble playing vs 46/8/1.2
Hand 1: Why are you double barreling? Do not try to make stations fold. I probably dont even c-bet that flop against this guy. He doesnt look like he is folding many c-bets and that flop hits alot of stuff.
Hand 2: Looks standard to me. Just give up on the river, see the reason in hand 1. |

Re: Trouble playing vs 46/8/1.2
there are times to double barrel even vs a station, and neither of these are one of them
Hand 1, the 7 changes nothing. He doesn't fold a 9, he doesn't fold any draw, and he certainly doesn't fold a 7. If he has bottom pair or an underpair he might fold those, but those are such a small % of his range on this board that it's a horrible spot to double barrel. |

Hand 1: c/f turn, don't bluff calling stations
Hand 2: take the free card, check behind on river. |

Re: Trouble playing vs 46/8/1.2
Yeah, the easiest (and almost only) way to suck against a station is by being impatient. Just wait on that big hand to stack them with, it'll get there eventually.
In the mean time just focus on avoiding double barrelling with A high. |
