Stars 10 hand (quick checkup)

vmacosta · #1 06-30-2007, 07:58 AM

Is it just me running good or have the games been really good lately? Villain in this hand is a weird/passive guy with tag pf stats (~30/20). Not too long ago he tried to steal from CO with 43s and played it very badly postflop.

I open in the CO with QdTx, villain 3-bets from BB, I call. Flop is Kd5d5x. He bets and I call. Turn is Ax, he bets and I fold.

Why peel the flop?

Well we have an aggressive PF player but passive postflop. Getting 7:1 we have two live cards here often and may get to see a river card for 1SB when the turn checks through. We also have image issues as we don't want to be giving up so quickly everytime we're 3-bet PF.

Not sure if this is what OP was thinking also.

Does anybody know how to move this post to small stakes? Not sure why I bothered to post this here.

I guess if he has a read he'll check the turn alot a peel might be close, I assumed OP was floating planning on taking it away if he checked the turn.

Agree w/ Carmine; I think he'll C/F a K55x turn ~never. "Call for a free card"!
