Dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] in the SB, eff. stacks are $1000.

Folded to TAG button who raises to $35. I make it $135. BB who is a regular and decent, calls. Button folds.

Flop A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (pot= $305)
I bet $220, villain calls.

Turn 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (pot= $745)
Check, check.

River 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (pot= $745, stacks= $645)
I check, villain pushes...

I think I call here...

I think the worst hand you're up against here is AQ. I'd fold.

jfish · #4 09-22-2007, 02:48 PM

push river

I would think you are checking to induce a shove given turn play, no?

Why check the turn? As played this is pretty close, you can probably call though.

Lefort · #7 09-22-2007, 03:21 PM

So you shove turn for value? You put him on JJ?

Requin · #8 09-22-2007, 03:32 PM

Seems like a pretty easy fold now. If there's not enough history or reason to shove the turn or river though, then I think a flop check is better.

Ugh why did I say check flop? I take it back.

really can't see anything BB would cold call 3bet pf and shove river with.. I think it's AK v often

jlocdog · #10 09-22-2007, 03:43 PM

Not one way or the other about the turn, but I feel his most likely holding is AQ. Open shoving the river may knock him off the split.

Given how the hand was played out, no way can I find a fold. No viable sets, draws, and AK seems like only hand we fear.

edit- just to clarify, I am all for the line you took if you call.
