Hand Review

Gotmilk · #1 08-01-2006, 01:01 AM

From level one of the WSOP Blinds are 25/50, hero has 12k,harry has 12k,and villian/button has like 6700

Hero limps 2nd in with 98o from cutoff, the button limps the sb limps and Harry Demetrious in the BB checks. The flop comes 8c 4c 2d and Harry leads out 250 limper folds, hero calls, button calls, SB folds. The turn is a Th, Harry checks, hero bets 600, button calls 600, harry folds. River Kh, hero bets 1000 button/villain all-ins for 5700.

Analyze the hand.

Hero should be raising that flop.
Button has red fours.

It looks somewhat suspicious to me. If he flopped or turned a big hand, you'd think he'd raise the turn, and river is sort of a blank even though it's a big card. It seems quite possible he reads Hero as weak and decides to make a play now that all the cards are out, knowing it's tough for hero to call off half his stack with a marginal hand. I can imagine some hyper-aggressive villains having nothing here.
