I would fold this but its really close. Grandiose is definitely capable of bluffin here.

To a lot of us who have played the big games with grandiose for a couple years in the big games on stars, he is known as" the legendary river bluffer", he cant help himself.

this is such an obvious:

he fired a second barrel on he turn when his flush draw came and to see if you would fold a non-Ten hand, or be dumb enough to cold call again with a Ten.

on the river, he knows you probably have a Ten, and now he is donk betting you.

if he is on tilt, it is more likely to be a bluff.

Ok I have not played much 10/20, and I’ll probably make myself look dumb but

To me his flop bet looks like a T that wants to create a big pot against a bad player (that's how I would play it). Am I just naive?


My turn play:

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes, that’s me. Why is this dumb? Several posters say I should have raised the turn. If I raise the turn I’m not folding. If I get it in there, can I expect to be ahead often? (Yes maybe, but isn't calling down better? That’s actually not what I did. I folded the river)

Heimdal,

I don't mind your play on any street against this particular opponent. I think a river laydown is in order.

my read is almost exactly the same as cero's. I haven't played with him in many months, but every time I have the guy has been a HUGE bluffer and tilter, and from the HHs that have been posted it looks like that hasn't changed at all.

However, I think a fold is in order here. He would have to be tilting really bad for me to want to call him on that river.

Isn't he the same guy that claims to be a huge winner? And one of the best online players ever. Pretty funny.
