Trips on double paired board

crashwhips · #1 10-05-2007, 05:53 PM

Is this total spew? My thinking was that if I just call it puts me in a tricky spot on the river and my hand is too good to fold, so I decided to raise to try to take it down right there, folding out draws and J's with the same or worse kicker and live cards. I also have 6 or 9 outs against a better J.

Opp is 42/4/2, kind of fishy. Is bet/fold or check/call a better line here?

Meh, just lead the turn.

And do what if he raises?

Like you said your hand is too good to fold. These kind of hands come down to reads. Clearly you don't respect villain enough to ever lay this down so makes it an easy play imo.

i'd guess he had the AJxx. ah, well, meh. i'd rather bet/fold than check/raise the turn, but whatever. without a read on villian to be nitty, your line is okay.

meh, standard.

fold pre flop......hand kind of blows imo

lead turn and stack off.......standard

KJ86 with three diamonds is a fold pre flop. OP is there a reason you played this hand? Just wondering in case I am playing too tight.

I don't mind your line since some opponents will put assume you've got like AA7 and will get it all in.

You raise under the gun with KJ86 with three diamonds in and you call your opponent fishy? He must have been REALLY bad...
