Combo draw - how to play it
Villain is 32/20/1.5 over ~150 hands. Has been seen peeling a lot of flops in position and betting the turn. I've also played one big pot with him earlier this session.
I guess I played this one pretty weak. I was thinking I didn't have any fold equity on the turn and that my outs are pretty tricky. Also, at the time I felt I might be able to bluff if the QJ draw hit (dunno how realistic that is though).

Results: Final pot: $2110 He has like 2100-2200 behind after betting the turn. I would guess his range is something like T9/AJ/KJ/QQ(unlikely)/set/air, with Jx being his most likely hand IMO. What I'm really wondering about is - what's the strongest play here? Would I (would you) push the turn with an overpair here? Fwiw, he should be thinking I might be frustrated with him.

Re: Combo draw - how to play it
Hand 1 is fine, Hand 2, meh I think a call is marginal at best. Flop call is bad i think.

I'm getting direct pot odds to draw to my 15 outs. The question is what's the best line on the turn - call or push. |

Re: Combo draw - how to play it
I prefer calling even though a push sure is sexy and good for metagame if that how you use to play sets in spots like this and he might tilt a bit if he calls (prob with a big hand) and you draw out on him.
However, if you call and miss you might be able to steal the pot on the river a decent amount of the time since you have pretty much money left and position. Also, all your outs (esp the straight-outs) are well disguised so he might fire again if you hit so calling seems superior. If you where OOP and/or your outs was not that disguised my vote should much more likely be on the push. |

Re: Combo draw - how to play it
flop is good
turn is a call. you can be realyl strong here for sure since the board is so dry (getting wetter on the turn, but pretty pedestrian). verty important to kno w how much he likes to play one pair hands fast oop, if h can have QJ here, etc, bc some guys can't obv. i would call the turn, and shove almost all rivers when checked to |

I've only played with him for like an hour or so. From what I've seen, I would say he is the player who will mix it up with all different kinds of hands. Minraise top pair, cold call set on a drawy flop. Tricky. QJ/TJ possible, AJ/KJ very possible. |

Re: Combo draw - how to play it
