Have you seen him fold in this type of spot? A lot of "TAG"s will just call you down with a pair here. I guess that gets you a cheap showdown with the chance of his folding, so that's cool. What do you do if he threebets?

Spew.

I fold the turn.

Hielko · #4 11-01-2006, 07:25 PM

I would fold against a 3-bet since it would mean that i'm drawing dead most of the time.

No. 3-bet the flop if you really want to move him off a hand. I would just call the turn.

I think it's going to be tough to get him to fold an overpair on this board, I don't mind it if you put him on a draw (ie u know he c/r with FD's, obv that's not the case here)

My only question is: does he know this?

Don't you think a turn raise looks stronger (or is it just 2 expensive?)

Does villain know you're a tag? If not this is spew and even if he does he'll always take JJ+ (maybe 99/TT) to showdown (maybe even 3-bet).
(Btw.: If he doesn't think at an advanced level, the two pairing makes it look like a very bad bluff-raise ...).

That said: call the turn, you should have almost 6 clean outs (unless he is tricky and calls KK/AA pf ...).

Buckmulligan · #9 11-01-2006, 08:07 PM

I see nothing that this accomplishes

we're not pushing him off anything better here. Period. he's not folding 99 or TT here.
