NL 50 - KQ, flop top two, huge river bet

[hoyasnaxa]

Guy has been solid, I have been raising a lot too. I thought he had a flush draw the whole time, and now I am confused.

Blech that's weird. If he's really solid then the only hand that remotely makes sense is 22, but why would a solid player play it this way with the draws present?

I guess he could have something like AK waiting to see if the FD hit, but whatever it is I'd say he played it poorly.

I think I find a call just because his line makes no sense at all to me.

yeah - that's just a weird line - i'm gonna have to call that.

I can't put this guy on a hand here.. If he has a set of 2's wouldn't he want to protect his hand against all the draws? You said this guy has been solid, but maybe he limped with a hand like 3d4d,5d6d, Ad10d, QdJd, Jd10d. From his viewpoint you have been raising alot and maybe he is just trying to get you to fold a weak queen. I think this is a call.

However, I think the key problem with this hand is the lack of a pre-flop raise from you. The hand would have played out completely different if you would have stuck in a raise pre-flop. The post-flop decisions would have been easier to make.

I completely agree, I have no idea why I didnt raise this, and your read is spot on my friend. I am very impressed. I called, and he showed 3d4d.

[pinkmarkers]

thank you

[Kasane]

That's one of the weirdest things I think I've ever seen from someone "solid."

I'm going to go with call it, too. If he shows you the 34dd/AA/22, you're going to have to change your read...

Oh, raise pf please.

I actually really like his play on the river, pushing makes it seem like he missed. I obviously dont think he has a set, and wasnt even thinking about 34. Raise preflop and this doesnt happen though. Bad hand me.

[Lego05]

Weeeird. I call.


And raise pre-flop. That limp is gross.
