Default Critique My Friend\'s Play Please - .50/1 flop broadway, turn royal

Missing the color since he C&P'd the thing to me over IM but you can still see it clear enough. He said that villain was "super aggro". He doesn't run PT so no stats.

I told him the fact that villain was super aggro meant that he completely misplayed this hand from start to finish. Your thoughts?

Absolute Poker
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $0.50/$1
9 players

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is MP2 with 10h Qh
3 folds, Hero calls, MP3 folds, CO raises, 3 folds, Hero calls.

Flop: Kh As Jh (5.5SB, 2 players)
Hero checks, CO bets, Hero calls.

Turn: Ah (3.75BB, 2 players)
Hero checks, CO bets, Hero calls.

River: 6h (5.75BB, 2 players)
Hero checks, CO bets, Hero raises, CO calls.

Results:

first, wrong forum.
second, fold pf.
third, probably b/3bet flop, maybe c/r, i guess my next choice would be to c/r the turn. No way i'm waiting until the river on this one. Just no way. especially against a "super agro" opponent.

I agree.

pf whatever, flop c/r or bet/3bet, turn c/r or bet/3bet, river def. bet/3bet.

*grunch*

Preflop is bad. If CO is super aggro, you don't want to open limp with a marginal hand 2 seats in front of him so that he can isolate you.

Flop is bad too, he'll go nuts with any piece of the board. Time to ram-n-jam.

Turn is horrible. How are you ever gonna win any money if you don't put in a raise. If villain has complete air and is semi-cognicent then he will give up on either the turn or the river. If he has a big hand, he'll go nuts. Start raising now. When you have the nuts on a board like this, where it's very likely that villain hit hard, then your only thought should be "Cap every street!".

As played, I guess river is fine. I don't think we have enough info to go for a b/3b so c/r for value (he'll probably fire one more with air, hoping you don't have a boat or a flush)

Sorry about the full ring hand. I'm a SSSH player and post here more than any other forum and automatically assumed this was a 6-max hand without even carefully observing it when he sent it to me.

Still, the same principles apply since the action opened from MP2.

For what it's worth, this is exactly what I told him. If he's gonna open QTs, he's gotta come with a raise.

If super aggro hit any real piece of that flop, he's going to be ramming and jamming right along with us. If he didn't and has a hand like a midpair or 87s or something like that, he's likely not going to pay us off on the turn unless he just happens to lose his mind. Thus, against a super aggro I think the play here is to hold down the bet/raise button.

Results in white:

<font color="white">In this case, the villain had AJ for the 2nd nut boat and as a super aggro this hand could have easily been capped on all streets, costing our Hero a significant amount of big bets.</font>

Which is one of the reasons your friend will never play above 0.5/1.

This hand is so terrible it makes me wanna cry
