$4/$8 at Foxwoods, KQs against tilting villain - Page 2

This is really interesting. Him 3-betting your C/R shows considerable strength. However, he is tiliting, so it may just him being pissy. I would like to reraise, but if he makes it 5, you're probably in trouble. How crazy was he postflop with his hands? I think calling and reevaluating on the turn might not be a bad thing.

Villain in this hand has taken a couple of bad beats and is obviously tilting badly. He's spewing chips doing things like 3-betting an EP open raise with 97o. Anyway, he clearly does not like me, partly because I keep chatting with another 2+2er who is at my table, and seems to want to "get revenge" on the game.

I'm UTG+1 with KQ and I raise.

Folds around to villain who 3-bets from the CO. Folded back to me, and I call.

Flop:

I check, he bets, I raise, he goes to 3-town, what's your play?

I call and bet a non-ace turn. If he raises, then I think you can just call down. 3 BB on the turn and river is probably about right given the action, and I don't think you want the turn to get checked through.

I think generally even when people are tilting, they'll back off if they have nothing at all in the face of heavy action. Not that they'll fold, but they'll go into call down mode. So I think bet-3-betting in this case would be a mistake on that board, as it's somewhat dry (depending on the turn card).

cap that all day every day...

i cap this preflop... if you have this credible of a read on villain it's just an equity play...

There's no cap, it's heads up.

Pretty crazy. Check-raising 2nd pair on the turn, for example. But this hadn't been going on for that long.

There would be a cap PF since there would be other money in the pot from the blinds.

The rest of the streets are a different story.

Check-call? Bet? What if he raises again?

That card kind of sucks, but I'm going to stick with my previous line and say bet/call. And I'd check/call most rivers.

I'm bet/3-betting the flop. If he's tilting, he'll raise your flop lead with air/2nd pair/3rd pair a lot, and not with the intention of folding to a 3-bang. If he 4-bets the flop, I'm in call down mode. If not, I'm bet/calling the turn and check/calling the river (depending on turn action and cards).
