Default A Subject that hasnt been discussed.

although im guessing that this topic wont get many good replies because people dont want to give stuff away, ill give it a try anyways.
maybe its silly and unimportant, but im curious.


why and when, do u lead into a pre flop RE-raiser? is it only when deeper and u want to lead/3bet? or bet fold certain hands?

i have seen the play quite a bit at the higher levels, so there must be something to it. I thought of this after sweating a bld v H@ll match where this hand happened:

H@££INGGOL: raises $150 to $200
NotThiSTiMe: raises $525 to $725
H@££INGGOL: calls $525
*** FLOP *** [2s 9h 4h]
H@££INGGOL: bets $1150
NotThiSTiMe: raises $4173 to $5323 and is all-in
H@££INGGOL: calls $4173
*** TURN *** [2s 9h 4h] [5d]
*** RIVER *** [2s 9h 4h 5d] [Jh]
*** SHOW DOWN ***
H@££INGGOL: shows [6c 9c] (a pair of Nines)
NotThiSTiMe: shows [Ts Jc] (a pair of Jacks)




anybody have any ideas? if u dont want to post, maybe pm me?

thanks.

There could be several reasons. One of the top of my head is If the re-raiser doesnt always c-bet and they are in position then you need to make this donk bet with a decent range of hands.

i dont think you should be leading into a preflop reraiser with ~normal sized stacks if you don't think your hand is best. so it would usually be to induce a raise, probably because the line is so strange and not taken often.

i think it's a move kinda like open pushing in weird spots. if you have a good idea of how the other guy will treat it you can get some great results, but it usually shouldn't be used because there is almost always a better line. against the right opponent, though, it can be very powerful either as a bluff or to induce a bluff, obviously. i agree with you, though, that it's a weird line. it's a line that's very hard to play against, though.

edit: can you also un* me? wtf?

I would do it if I think there is a good chance my opponent has reraised over cards like AK, AQ.. and low cards hit. Then there is a good chance your opponent will make a lay down.

But with this hand I think Hall just hates to let hands go. And he would rather play the flop aggressively then check it.

top corner, we're glad you would do that so he lays down the worst hand. expert play.

cliff notes: you have no idea what you are talking about
