A 800 lb. gorrlia sandwich
Looks simple... or is it? Or maybe I'm just trying to justify some really counterintutative play.
UTG here is slightly retarded. Loose and passive, with a habit of peeling flops and turns for one bet. However, he will fold hopeless hands for two bets or more. Never raises without a huge hand. CO is a cutie. TAGgish stats but a bit initative-obsessive. My image relative to him is goot though, as he's bet/bet/bet into me with air and lost enough to slow down on that line. He'll keep betting until you push back, at which point he will further define his hand (fold air, call down with marginal holdings, raise the goods -- standard stuff). Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) lolihunter.com (for all of your loli hunting needs) Preflop: Heroine is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Heroine caps</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG calls, CO calls. <font color="blue">Cold cap!

Top set on a dry-ass board. Dope!... but then the CO bets into me. What the hell? I'm not quite sure what he thinks my cold-capping range is but I can not imagine it being very wide. For the sake of argument let's say it's AA-QQ, AK. Let me try to put him on a range here: AA, because he doesn't fear [censored] and is trying to get me to reraise with something like AK. AK/KQ because he thinks his hand is range is best against mine and is betting for value -- but if this were the case, would he not checkraise instead? Or maybe he's trying to get the LPP's possible 5-outer out of the pot... urgh. I would fade KQ here because he would be more concerned about AK (on top of AA and KK) there, but I do not know how bright he is... QQ-TT and he's just getting stupid, praying I fold something like QQ-TT. Or maybe he isn't thinking -- there have been a couple of instances where he raised, I 3-bet him and he donked the flop (whatever the hell it was) for no discernable reason. Here is the problem: I raise here and the LPP is almost certainly gone unless he has a huge hand (and if he spiked something like a set of 9s, he's going to 3-bet and almost certainly drive the CO out!). Now if the CO has a smaller pair he probably also folds, figuring my range to be narrow and that he's drawing to somewhere between 2 and 0 outs. If he has AA we probably stack off on this flop and he probably slows down after a couple of turn bets. The funny instance here is if he has AK... and I think he slows down fairly quickly with that, because I've been going full throttle since the hand started which really defines my hand at this point -- it's pretty clear I have, at worst, TPTK. So at best he is chopping and would want the LPP's nearly dead money in as long as possible.</font> Turn: (8.25 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets</font>, Heroine calls, UTG calls. <font color="blue">Same problem as before, except now I think it's even more likely he folds something like AK -- my flop call after the pre-flop cold-capp followed by a turn raise just screams monster looking to trap, and well what the hell else could I have? It's not like I've been going bananas capping trash pre-flop... maybe I have upset Shania. Who knows. A raise here is certainly getting rid of the LPP unless he has two spades or T8/64 for the open-ender... but he raised pre-flop, so I doubt he has that.</font> River: (11.25 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> UTG checks, CO checks, <font color="#CC3333">Heroine bets</font>, insert hot steamy futanari sex scene here. <font color="blue">What am I going to do, check behind with the near-nuts? If someone has 64 or 86 at this point, they deserve my stack. Wryyyyyyyyyyyyy.</font> Pot: 11.25 beedogs (plus my bet, plus whatever else happens) Before anyone says "ME GRIMLOCK ME LIKE HAND ME RAISE GRRAWWARARAWRAW", think about what the CO could have, and what the CO thinks I would have given my actions and his actions. zomg third level thinking! -Dippy |

Re: A 800 lb. gorrlia sandwich
this looks fine, i think you extracted the max. If UTG or CO raised with 86 or 64 PF, then you deserve their stack, not the other way round.
I don't see how you can get more bets in. You'd just lose players with worse hands. i suppose if CO has AA you may get more bets in, but at the loss of UTG's guaranteed payoff. Nice hand. |

Re: A 800 lb. gorrlia sandwich
I'd raise turn. At least one will call by my guesstimation of pulling stuff out of my ass. You may lose someone, but nut peddling by calling 1 bet is just silly at that point. Too many cheap cards will come back to bite you - esp with frush draw now on the table.

Re: A 800 lb. gorrlia sandwich
raising the flop looks best.
when CO has AK or AA we get to put a ton of bets in on the flop and we have a good chance of getting UTG caught here (a much better chance than on the turn). the board is K9x so JT QJ QT all have gutters and the pot is about 15 bets on the flop. i also highly doubt he folds TT-QQ to a measly flop raise. |

this hand is from 2.00/4.00, not 200/400 right?

[/ QUOTE ] look, im sure you have an equally lengthy and convoluted explanation of why the word "futanari" is a part of your regular vocabulary despite being a heterosexual as you do for your play in this hand, but frankly im not buying either one |

Re: A 800 lb. gorrlia sandwich
This is why you raise this hand on the flop: it's the only street no one will bail on when they capped pf and the board is disconnected.
Add that you have someone who looks willing to 3-bet you and possibly beyond, and you've got a recipe for more $$$ than you get going for the overcall (note the singular). I'm starting to get fed up with the tons of decisions that are being made based on "extracting the max." The problem with these decisions is that "the max" ends up looking awfully close to "the min." And it's becoming epidemic: I had a recent session where I swear NOBODY would raise anything over TPNK, for fear of "losing the action." Nobody respects squat at Party 2/4. They're betting their own hands. Raise and don't stop. |
