He's calling with A-hi here nearly 99% of times and sometimes hands like KQ. These players don't generally bet their A-hi and -usually- K-hi here if we check and I doubt he's going to try a desperate bluff enough times if we check after we've shown a lot of strength OOP. I'm also pretty sure he will bet for value a pair as low as a pair of twos if we check after the turn went check-check and the board paired on the river |

These ppl are more likely to bet A-hi or whatever else they happen to hold there. A better player will not bet these holdings but he will value bet any pair since our hand is so obvious. Check-(fold) is an option against a very passive player as he is not going to bet weak pair and thus save us a bet.

Good bet, on the TQ hand however I fold preflop, then I fold the flop.

Re: Value bet A-hi?
Check and call if you must show down. He folds most everything you beat, and calls or raises everything you're behind. Since he's a LAG he may even bluffraise you here, and you certainly can't call. Let him bluff bet, because you can call that one.

Re: Value bet A-hi?
I would check call. If he has a weak fd he will not call and if he had something like A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] x [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] there is a good chance that he would bet the turn. I guess he will call sometimes with A high but if he has a really weak ace he may not due to the strength that you have shown.
I think that checking also allows him to bet his ace high which you are beating. |
