WTF is with everyone saying Mafews is tight and straightforward? Have you actually played him HU or are you basing this on his full-ring play? HU he is creative and very capable of making moves, even in full-ring I wouldn't call him tight.

FeelNothin...I never said he was tight and straightforward. Like you said, HU far from it. I just think in general, he gets his money in with the best of it especially in hands like this.

No one seemed to be alittle worried about that re-reraise call pf there. Seems to me he played his AA well.

Mafews is probably the single player I've railed most in the last 12-18 months. I've watched thousands upon thousands of hands of Mafews and it is very rare he's making a play like this without the goods. I could be mistaken.

He's a massive massive online winner and he maintains that by putting his money in when he's got the best of it.

I know that doesn't help with the specific hand you posted but hopefully it'll help in the future when you face another decision against Maf.

GL.

I played a lot more with Mafews in PLO than in NL on party, but generally what Intendere said is correct, i.e. he will have the goods when he makes a raise most of the time. But as the other poster said, he is also definitely capable of making a move and even sometimes appearing laggy even on a FR table. And he also likes to slowplay. But when he makes a move it is generally on a later street and not the flop. So it really doesn't pay to try to value bet him excessively on the end unless you would welcome a raise, as he will either fold or raise. So although I wouldn't like to have checked 2 streets in position anytime, I might have here, although if I bet I would call a raise.

If he played AT like this post flop why can't he play AA like that?

The hand is perfectly played by both until the river. Villains check is awful, compared to that Hero's bet is awful too. I will check that river prob. 95% of the time...
