MF'er why won't you fold!!

[loosbastard]

Villain is playing pretty aggro PF...but tends to slow down a lot post-flop. He's been donking into me w/ everything from air to the nuts. I got caught running a couple of big bluffs, so now he's not folding anything to me...ever.

hand 1 - i like this, except that i would probably check the river. are you looking for value from TT,9x ?? if you think he'll call you with 88-77 it is fine i guess.

hand 2 - just about right imo. he's gonna stick around some hands you beat and some you don't. i definately prefer to bet the turn and check river instead of vice versa.

hand 3 - looks fine. if he has a straight here he's fooled me. i think the all-in is a bit suspicious. but i've been wrong before.

hand 4 - yep.

Yeah hand 1, he calls and tables 88.

Hand 2, he flips K2dd and MHIG.

Hand 3, he shows 56hh and I don't improve...wtf? NH sir.

Hand 4, he INSTA-calls w/ the other AQ. I figured the shove was ok given my image...and I couldn't see him playing a better hand like this as he probably puts in a raise somewhere.

head asplode from so many unrelated, completely diff hands in one thread

[mertzo]

1: check river and its not close
2: check turn and its not close

Rest of the hands i like.

They were all against the same villain. I figured they would make more sense in the overall context of the match.

1: What hand better than Jx does he play like this? He had been donking into me w/ a really wide range...and w/ his timing and my image, he seemed ready to call down w/ 9x/77/88/.

2: Meh...this was more of a timing thing again. He tended to play a little trappy w/ big hands, and given the flow of the match it just smelt like [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img][img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] to me. Oh and he's not folding a 3 to me either.

[fees]

1. too thin
2. def dont bet the river no worse calls
3. depends on what he leads/3bets with, if he pushes draws get it in and take it as cooler
4. get it in not even close
5. c/r the turn, as played yeah just whatever on turn and shovel riv

I considered C/R on the turn...but I wanted to extract from worse Q's which he was generally checking behind. I had already been caught in a couple multi-street bluffs, so I figured betting was better in this particular situation.
