Too much or too little?
This hand takes place sort of in a vacuum because it was my second hand at a table full of unknowns. The only tiny read I had was that during opponents first hand he raised preflop and bet the flop and bet/folded the turn on a Q235 three hearts board. That's all I have.
6 handed 20/40. I don't chop 6 handed and I announced this before the hand was dealt. 4 folds and I raise KK in the sb. BB says "chop?" I reply "I don't chop 6 handed" and he shrugs and 3-bets, I 4-bet, he asks the dealer "can I raise again?" the dealer nods "ok I call" Flop: 553r I bet, he raises, I 3-bet, he 4-bets, I 5-bet, he 6-bets, I call. Turn 2o I bet, he raises, I call. River J I check call. How would most people play this vs a complete unknown in this spot? This happened a while ago but I've always been curious. |

Re: Too much or too little?
IMO, it's NEVER correct to put that many bets in on the flop against an unknown. I know 2 + 2 loves aggression but IMO, that's just spew against a random player.

Funnily enough, I'm okay with 7 betting the flop but not with betting the turn.

I am just curious as to the thought process on your turn lead? Where you concerned that he 6 bet you for a free card? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I don't understand exactly what happened preflop. Did he 5 bet it or not?

So I wanted to make sure that at most 2 bets went in on the turn and I wasn't comfortable c/raising, perhaps it was a mistake. Snowball, he asked if he could 5-bet and then he called. Aragon, I understand that this much aggression vs. an unknown is usually poor play. (hence why I posted this) But what would you advise? Calling down after the flop 4 bet? |

Re: Too much or too little?
ya i think u put in too many bets.
this is one of those spots where u want to be thinking about how many bets u want going into the pot. i would have called his 4bet, and then played the turn and river the same way you did. as played on the flop, i would have just c/c down. |

Re: Too much or too little?
You didn't bet enough since you had to have the best hand at the moment, except for AA.
It's not like an unknown would have a 5-3 and six bet with rags like that pre flop. However, I would chop with KK six handed so everybody at the table would like me; I wouldn't want other players at a short handed table to think I am a dick or anything. |
