If this play is correct I need to get a lot of male hormones before I move up to that table.

I think this is fine once in a while, especially against a regular which it sounds like this guy is.

The biggest problem is that you say he doesn't play much oop so if he does have a flush, it's most likely a big one which he's never folding (I know you're not trying to fold out flushes but it'd be nice to have some FE vs smaller flushes here and it seems as though this is a non-existent part of his range).

I think that he has 2 pair, 77 enough to make this work and when it doesn't, it doesn't really matter all that much since he's a regular opponent and I assume that you're doing this for value > 90% or so.

1) i am betting this river with anything i am calling $65 with. i believe villain is good enough, despite the donkish appearance of his pre/flop/turn play to recognize this.

By this logic he should never bet any hand here?

[bozzer]

more reads needed for this to be good.

- how often does he 3bet?
- any chance of him calling all streets with a FD?
- does he think you are fairly likely to bet 2 streets with a FD?

I mean it's nice you can get him to fold 99/TT, but a 77 has a set now, and i don't get why he suddenly comes out with a blocker bet with his weaker hands after calling two streets.

i think some of you are missing how mammoth op's hand looks. what do you guys need to call if you're the villain?
