I have a hard time putting him on a king, which king c/c the flop? More often than not I'd say he has overs with a diamond and I doubt he bluffs the river.

Very weird.

I think you have to do this, but just be aware how incredibly marginal it is.

You think he ever c/c's flop with AK? What about K4s?

I really don't know what else to say.

I dont like it, most times people will shut down when the flush card comes and if they dont it often means that they have a hand they dont plan on folding. A hand that is likely better than yours.

[8Adam8]

his line is disgustingly bad w/ any possible holding he could have

i think you already know I like how you played it

fair enough. however, he has some game, and he could easily be on a semi-bluff here. there aren't many fds in my range, and a whole lot of weak one pair hands.

[celticslegend]

I think most players are a lot more likely to go for a c/r all in here with a made flush and a flush draw, however I'm not sure about this specific player.

[adanthar]

lordhutty is usually straightforward. he obv played this bad no matter what he had, but when his hand looks disgustingly 'vulnerable but strong' like it does right now, he usually has it.

edit: yes, there are lots of 1 pair hands in his range. it's just that they're all &gt; your pair, and he's usually calling.

[Bakes]

so you discount 55-77? would he just lead the flop with those?

[celticslegend]

this would be the absoulte strangest/worst way to play 55-77, if he has some game like you said he did then I think we can easily discount those.

[Bakes]

so name a hand that does make sense? then maybe we can get to a range for him and crunch some numbers. what is the optimal line with 55-77 there?
