Villain is a decent TAG. Hero's image is also that of a TAG.

Have been playing a while but have rarely clashed. UTG and a player that just left are the money and both of Hero and Villain are significantly up.

2 hands ago Hero 3bet from BB then checked flop and check folded turn.

On Game, 5/10, 5 handed.

Hero has A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in CO

MP raises, Hero 3bets, Blinds fold, MP calls.

Flop: A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

MP checks, Hero bets, MP calls.

Turn: Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

MP checks, Hero checks and intends to call any river (except an Ace obv).


Reasoning: I cant fold at any point. Bluff induction, and cheaper showdown at the same time.

Villain's Ace-range is reduced as he generally lets me know if he has an Ace on the flop. He will cap most PPs preflop, and those he wont cap he will fold on the flop.

Therefore his hand range is primarily Qx, KJ-T.

Against this range (provided we accept folding isnt an option), we minimise losses vs Qx and maximise winnings from river bluff induction. We lose value (1BB) from weaker A9-7, its hard to say how this effects our +ev vs PPs due to folding/betting possibilities.

Thoughts?
