incredibly gross board with bottom two against a 36/21

so sick bro · #1 10-16-2007, 08:14 PM

been playing against this guy for like an hour and a half. His preflop stats are pretty fishy but as far flop play was concerned he was not spewing, not making big plays as far as id seen. i had a terrible feeling about it as soon as he instaminraised, but i felt like i should figure out where i was as big draws were def a big part of his range.

What's a better line to take here?

i like your 4 bet and your fold, nothing more you can do in this spot, i know it sucks but WP

nasty spot. i doubt he would instaminraise with a set....

what is his agression factor, and his raise Cbet %

easy play when 100BB deep, 190BB deep makes it really tough.

these are the spots i have absolutely no idea what to do. as you have put it across i think the fold is ok, cos we aren't even in that good shape against a draw, and could be crushed

This is not good. You are basically turning your hand into air

grando · #5 10-16-2007, 08:46 PM

he has T9 or 99 a lot here...

oh yes. also JJ can be discounted because of PF, and we kill lower sets somewhat.

I didn't think it was good. wtf is the best line here?

shpanko · #8 10-16-2007, 08:48 PM

is this villain ever going to just call your 4-bet with a worse hand? If not I like calling the raise and leading a safe turn, if he'll call/shove worse then I like 4-bet/call. Still I'm not that excited about getting it AI here.

Just call the raise. I don't think I've ever 4-bet/folded in my life and I don't think it's a move anyone needs.

Call the flop raise. There's tons of draws he can be pushing.

Btw hero didn't 4-bet anywhere in this hand.
