Poker News CUP ME Money Bubble hand

[greg nice]

you put him on AA/AQ, nothing changes, so you decide to valuetown yourself on the river? i dont get it.

[luckychewy]

checking flop might be better in this scenario.

after u bet, perfect.

[mlagoo]

easy fold on the end, and i like the way you played it. no one instashoves that river as a bluff on the bubble, especially not with those stack sizes, they just dont do it. but he'll call with worse, and i disagree with his range for flatting the flop, people can definitely show up with QJ/QT here.

Like i said, it's possible he shows up with QJ/QTwwww, but yes those seemed like his most probable hands. I really wasn't comfortable calling 100k or a shove on the river, so the river is basically a blocking/value.

No like?

I think QJ and QT bet the turn here always. At that point, there's almost as much in the pot as in Villain's stack. There's a flush draw and pair on board, you could easily have AK, he's not giving you a free card at this stage in the tournament. When he checks behind, I think his range is 90% {boat, quads}.

[getballed]

Check the river and then you have an option of calling a value bet.

Check on the turn looks like a boat IMO

[mwalsh2020]

bet folding would normally be ok if you thought villain was capable of calling worse but here you have to trust your flop read and c/f the river
