You beat JJ and AK - 22 combinations.

you lose to AA, KK, QQ & TT - 21 combinations.

he isnt folding any hand that beats you to a raise. And your not folding - the action is obviously a call.

[/ QUOTE ]

Uh nobody's talking about trying to bluff him off Aces with a call call river-raise line, what about the times he calls a river raise with JJ or occasionally looks him up with AK because of this slightly oddball line. I'm not saying the river is a raise(I don't think it is) but you're looking at it wrong.

if i raise the flop given the read i had on the guy i'd look for a fold somewhere. i don't think JJ/99 3 bet the flop and bet it down. and given that i wanted to see a showdown, i didn't want to put in money and reduce the chances i have the best hand by such a huge degree.

i don't think bob thinks i'm like you guys [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

he has never seen me get out of line (except that KQcc hand which was the first ever hand i played against him and we've talked about it a bit lol) and until this hand, i didn't think he was capable of 4 betting 99 preflop against me.

i've been much more hesitant to mix it up vs. bob than vs. jay. i'll gladly toss money around vs. jay and i've shown him i'm capable of it to get him off my back...that bastard [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

anyways, thanks for all your thoughts guys. definitely a learning experience vs. somebody i thought i had pegged (like it will be the first time i see tommy ears go nutso...haven't seen it yet).

Results:

bob raises early i 3 bet QQ he 4 bets i call.

flop is T88 bet call.

turn some blank, bet call.

river some blank, bet call.

bob turns over 99 and i take it.

his body language when he turned over his hand said "ship it" and he was legitimately shocked when i flipped up QQ (i.e. showed up in his face) to which he rapped the table and gave the acknowledging "nice hand" head nod with his headphones on.

Once again nice hand DcifrTHs. Was very surprised to see QQ still didn't know what ur 3 bet range on the button was after I already 3 bet you 3 times. It was a great flop and turn for my hand.

If I was Dcb777,jkamowitz or BK1248 fold QQ preflop your just gonna get out played too offten to play such a marginal hand against my range.
