The line he took is pretty strange. I can't really put him on a hand,

how about KJo or AJo with a club?

Any reasoning that you have for not raising earlier in the hand with one of those holdings makes villain's river raise very questionable IMO.

[/ QUOTE ]
is it just you and me who think this?

I couldn't decide if it was questionable enough. Then I ran out of time and panicked. Not sure more time would have helped me.

Against a different villain, the PF cap is ok, I guess, but a straight up tag isn't 3-betting you with 66 or A6s here like ever - even if he's making a play with 98s still just a flip.

If I had played this hand, my line would have been call 3-betl, c/c on 3 streets as the cards fell. Yeah, I get valuetowned a little, but I also get 3-barreled and win a little...

coin flip to the river. getting that 98s to put in another bet preflop only to fold the flop a majority of the time or getting KQs out before the river is a big bonus. capping can only be bad if you're a big dog or he's going to play you off your hand often after you cap pf. most won't, and most btn ranges vs. a co open are wide enough that these factors become pretty significant - at least significant enough to begin the debate on whether it covers the equity deficit preflop (which you surely have).

this is good advice against normal tags. chezlaw (OP), on the other hand is like 18/14 so his CO opening range is similar to our UTG opening ranges. So when he gets 3-bet by anybody decent who has stats on him and isn't tilting, 77 is behind.

I don't know if danza was taking this into account, but im pretty sure sethypooh was.

Also, sethypooh, you're folding 66 otb when chezlaw opens in CO?

then again when I cap from the hijack he knows I have at least AA so I get a lot of bad folds.

nah you cap kinda light (at least you have a few times against me).

btw, in general i think you play well postflop and with the number of table-hours you put in, I bet you make more money than 90% of the posters on this forum.

yep that's the other end of it. also chezlaw isn't 18/14, lol. i guarantee people are routinely 3-betting his CO opens with a wide range.
