Middle set very deep 1/2 NL

Villain is tight and afraid of me. I have been a lot more aggressive than me, and he keeps folding every time he doesn't have a hand. I doubled him up earlier with a bad play on the river with Q7 vs 22 on x77K2 board vs his 22.

Other than that, he is up $400 on me lifetime, as he has been given setups you could only dream of.

Sorry for mangled HH, but there's no converter for everest poker. So does this look right?

is turn an overbet? 77 into 54 pot? I raise that, only question is how much. Potting it sounds good.

i like how you played it, i think he has a big hand, but some big hands you still beat so you have to call, but there's a good chance he has it here.

ironfly: why raise the turn? i really don't see any point in doing that. I have position, and he's basically forced to bet AA, KK or QQ on the river. The problem as I see it is whether or not to raise river.

btw, let me add that I'm 99% sure he would reraise JJ+ preflop.

This one fell down to the third page, so im gonna top it. I talked to Svindle and he told me to raise river. I'd really like some opinions here.

IronFly · #7 08-01-2007, 06:52 PM

do you think he plays 98 like this line?

yeah, turn raise is prolly not good.

ivvaen · #8 08-02-2007, 08:24 AM

Yep that's what I was afraid of, and he did have 89 for the flopped straight, but I'm curious if it's unprofitable to call it down like that in the long run.

Jesus, raise the god damn flop. Like WTF?

ivvaen · #10 08-02-2007, 01:27 PM

Why should I raise the flop? He did not bet his draws. If he has JJ+ I'm making it easy for him to get away by 4-betting the flop. I think the only debatable part of my hand is the river call.
