Ok before I post results- just wanted to get some opinions.. Villain was playing loose- and was prob tilting after losing quite a bit..
River good call or no?
I was calling right through because he was clearing over-betting and wanting to take the pot down at each street..

very nice hand, sir.

This is 100% read dependant. With a tilting opponent, I can aggree with a call-down. Otherwise calling down with a TP on a ragged, dry board against someone who called a raise before the flop and fires flop, turn and river, is a bad idea, imo. I'd probably raise the flop and fold to aggression on the turn if I get called.

If you are sure he is tilting then this call down is good. Let him fire of his frustration.

tannenj · #5 12-13-2006, 07:21 AM

genz, on which street can you fold?

1968 · #6 12-13-2006, 07:43 AM

Villain did in fact show A10. I would agree with the above posts- raise flop and see the turn..
wish he could have re-loaded and fired out more frustration [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I like the play, he'd prob re-raise with an AK so unless he spiked a river 9, it looks like you're giving him enough rope to hang himself.

I agree with whats been said as the opponent was on tilt. Would love to know opinions on what to do if the opponent is a typical TAG? Would a raise and fold to a re-raise be a good play on the flop?

wtf?? your line worked perfectly. it's a wa/wb situation, you don't want to raise. his most likely hand is a weaker ace than you have -- let him continue to "value bet" it.

this hand is played perfectly.
