What's my hand look like to a 5/10 regular?

[iRock]

I recently decided to try and multitable at 5/10 with 6-8 tables to cut down on my variance before the wsop and to gain some confidence going in. I am still feeling out the level, so I was wondering what my hand looks like here, and what range I get called with? (I'd like those that play 5/10 a lot to comment, but higher stakes players welcomed too)

My image has been fairly aggressive, but i have not lost any pot over like 200 dollars yet, always showing a good hand or no showing at all.

Its like 500 more for him to call. Villain is SamH133. Multitabling i dont really have any reads, but I think he plays 5/10 and 10/20 as a regular.

1) whats my hand look like?
2) what range calls me do you think?

[fslexcduck]

your hand looks a lot like a flopped set, AA, TQ, or KQ/78/8T. If you were deeper i could definitely see you shoving a mid pocket pair here as a bluff. What should call you and what do call you are very very different beasts, and I'd expect you to get called by most of what he is value betting.

[EC10]

i would think that a bluff here is really spewy since he's getting such good odds you can't expect him to fold anything he was value betting. so you must have something you expect to be the best hand.

[flavio321]

to me it looks very strong given that the villain only has to call 500 more, AA-QQ, possible 99,88. you are getting called here by any jack, TT, QQ almost all the time.

[Go_Blue88]

You get called by overpairs most of the time.

QT, JJ, 99, 66, 88 are possible. I feel like you'd bet the turn with AA or KK.

But, I feel like overpairs on a paired board= awesome to most ppl. Even AJ might look good to him.

Interesting responses. I was on a bluff (A9) and he called with KK, but I was more interested in the hand because I have been on the other side of the hand and folding pretty strong hands to raises like these at 5/10, for the very reason that it is almost never a bluff (even Q10 got there).

I am confused tho, because since my hand's line is so strong, why do you guys think it gets looked up so often. I would think that i am walking the line between my hand looking like I couldn't possibly be bluffing and the other side of "theres so much money in there, [censored] it i call." I think i get too many "[censored] it i call" calls here to make it a profitable play at 5/10, but i was just trying out a new line against a regular because worst case is he thinks im retarded from now on. He did take the timer all the way down tho, so maybe not so bad a line every once every few weeks.

Here's a somewhat similar hand against a winning 5/10 regular. I think this can give you a sense of what they will call with (everything) and what they will fold (nothing).

Hm I guess i have to reserve bluffing for more select spots at 5/10. Thats a good point about the paired board. I also thinks this shines some light that i need to be raising for value thinner than i am used to as is dictated by your hh above.

[TheWorstPlayer]

well, at least he tanked in my hand, too. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] good luck.

nobody folds to repped boats unless they are real weak
