Bottom straight against a LAG

Absolution · #1 10-24-2007, 08:30 PM

This guy is 34.5/27.6/4 after 28 hands. He's seems kind of spazzy. He's insta-raising like he's pounding on the buttons:

Seems like a fairly simple call down.

perhaps you could raise fold the river??

i don't mind raising the turn either ... how light will he raise here - i really don't want to put a lot of bets in

"perhaps you could raise fold the river??"

can't be better than raising turn.

when you call the turn on TJQK he has to think "oh wow Maybe he does have a 9 or at least like a Solid top pair so i have to c/f my bs."

simple call down though simply because Ax is such a huge part of his range. only other option is calling here and folding the river.

This is a sick spot. You're getting 6.5:2 assuming river action is b/c. Hrm.

Yeah, I call down I suppose.

Call down.

Lets not get crazy here with this, if the board doesn't 4 st8 then we know what do you....here call it down.

To anyone saying raise anywhere(well, turn or river):
No no no no no!

Even if you plan to raise/fold the turn or raise/fold the river you still need 66% equity + he needs to call a raise for it to have any value. Let him barrel off his TP/2pair or whatever, and get away cheaply when he has the Ace.

This is probably one of my numerous leaks, but if you've been stealing with a generous range, why not raise the flop and induce a 3-bet against a wide range of hands? Equity insufficient vs. SB 3-bet range?
