5nl: open ender vs reraise

Ikaika · #1 01-24-2007, 05:43 PM

Villain was 64/10/1.7 over ~60 hands. With the open-ender i'm looking at 8 outs to the straight, but I assume he has an ace of some sort so I wasn't sure what to do.

Hero bets $2, Button raises to $4.93, Hero ???

If he had just called my c-bet I would have put him on a flush draw, but his play seemed to indicate either an overpair or possibly a set. Is this a reasonable range to put him on?

Technically speaking, I don't think your lead is a c-bet here since you no longer have the betting lead as you got 3-bet before the flop.

I wouldn't have led out this flop, since if he has a nice piece or an overpair, he will raise big to try to stop you from drawing (which is what happened here). I'd c/c this flop to try to draw out.

I'd put his range on TT, QQ+, AQ, or maybe even AcKc. Maybe not AQ since most players would not 3-bet that PF, and his stats don't indicate that he would go crazy with AQ.

Have you seen him 3 bet a lot, at all? YOu should probably dump KJo PF OOP against a 3 bet.

fold preflop after we get re-raised.

KJo blows - the only time I play KJo I have position and momentum - the 3bet takes away our momentum and we are now OOP so easy fold.

I like the CO raise with KJo, but you have to be able to fold it to a reraise. In the end, you put in 1/6 of your stack preflop OOP with KJo.

As played, I think it is a c/f on the flop just because you don't have enough behind to get proper implied odds on the OESD.

I think that his range is TT+, AK based on the pf reraise and being 10% pfr. Maybe AQs if he is playing positional poker. I don't think JJ or AK (except AKc) would reraise here on the flop, though.

He'd been 3-betting occasionally, nothing really out of the ordinary. The timing of his push seemed kinda weird to me, it was like instantaneous. After the hand he showed AQo.
