400nl: TPTK in the driest of boards

[stackingboxes]

1. V is regular, liquidice777 25/19. we have alot of history. when I first played him, he made alot of speculative calls in 3 bet pot that i thought was really spewy. pretty aggro overall.

In this hand, only one legit hand beats me. AT, and okay..maybe 22. Since the pool of hand that beats me is so damn small, I donno what to do against that minraise. It is also a horrible place to bluff imo.

Betting the turn is standard right? much better then checking behind? or is checking behind almost as good?

I like a fold in the first one. What exactly can he have except AT (or 22)? I just don't see him float OOP in a multi-way pot or turning a weak ace into a bluff.

Second one. I like your C/F.

first hand is more likely A10, but might be also AK/AQ/AJ, and even 1010 (funny but true), if u sure he pushes on the river and don't have strong enought read and afraid of him going all in it's a fold, but if not, u can also just call, and see what happens. i probably fold here.
second hand is fold.

yeah thats what I thought too, AT or 22. obv more weight to AT due to combos. But thats such a small small range.

why is it that we give people so much credit when there is a small range of hand that beat us? althrough the question of what he could be floating with and then bluffing is a very good point...

annoying thou, A22, AK should be the nuts..damnit..
