[ QUOTE ] If you've been 3-betting him a lot I'd just 3-bet here and hope he pushes over the top with a weaker hand. [/ QUOTE ] [/ QUOTE ] definitely. This is correct and I don't think there is a good second best option. As played I might vbet the rive for like $60. |

Re: 200: Warning: A Different Line with QQ
I think he has air more than anything else here, so I don't see value in a river bet.

Qtip-
Why no 3-bet preflop? By only calling, you are giving him infinite odds to hit the flop. I don't think queens are a hand that you want to slowplay from start to finish. |

Re: 200: Warning: A Different Line with QQ
Yeah, I don't like the river bet either. There are maybe 2 hands he can call with and a bunch he can induce a bluff with. He just needs a weak A to beat us, which matches his line well enough.

[/ QUOTE ] I wouldn't say they are infinite since he did put in a raise. It would be infinite if he put in nothing. Nevertheless, I am curious the reasoning for no preflop raise. |

[/ QUOTE ] You aren't giving him any implied odds by calling. The reason is because u are calling with a wide range that consists of 22-AA AK AQs and suited connectors. What you are however doing by coldcalling with QQ+ some of the time here, is depolarizing your range on the flop and turn. Where it once was underpair or set, a range that is very easy to play against from villains standpoint, now becomes underpair, set, top pair, overcards/draws, overpairs, a range that is much more tricky to optimally play against out of position. |

[/ QUOTE ] I think a lot of times we tailor our "balancing acts" towards aggression, whereas I think there are a lot of times when we can tailor it towards passiveness. We have deep stacks here, and I can use my position to my advantage here. The larger the pot gets in porportion to the stacks, the less my position means to me. I can really get him thinking in these spots with plays like this which allow me to get free cards and showdowns with other hands and so forth. I'm calling here with a LOT of hands PF. I would be doing so with suited 2 gappers, suited aces, unsuited connectors, pps and so forth. That's my $.02 anyway. |
