I play weird at 1/2

Rotterdaum · #1 11-30-2006, 03:35 AM

No hands on MP but he seemed pretty loose in the first or a couple of orbits i've played with him, hence the repop preflop.
I found this hand quite interesting.
Would guys please comment on my line.
Questions: WHat would you do? (I imagine nobody would take my line)
Do you think this line is REASONABLE?
btw, I like my line

A) What would you do if preflop is as played?
B) WHat would you do if flop is as played?

that turn bet is crazy, he probably has wacked out diamonds sometimes, but i think he will also have KJ and have been trying to get a raise out of you with the weak turn lead, Or maybe just a cheap card for his bd clubs, iono. FWIW i almost always bet flop in these spots.

What did you think he would bet the river with there?

If more people express amusement with my turn "check", I'll explain my reasoning

EDIT: IT's not fair guys, don't ask questions back ... I've provided a hands, now provide me with something, and i'll do you

As played preflop I would have bet out on the flop.. with the awful turn action he probably ends up with something ridiculous like a club flush.

If your rerasing range is wide and you CB every time, isn't that exploitable?

Taylor Caby · #7 11-30-2006, 03:53 AM

A) Bet 32 on flop, check turn most of the time, river - id be more inclined to call if turn went check/check.

B) call turn, fold river.

the turn isnt that confusing to me, there is little reason to raise, but im just not sure you are good often enough on the river to call, but i would probably call just to see since the hand played out so weird.

Rotter,

Usually when 3 betting pf I like to follow up with a cbet here. With the way the games have been getting a lot of people are calling real light though. As played after the flop, I play it the same way. I just call his $2 and I call his $50 on river because against an unknown this is a missed flush draw a lot at $200nl based on the way he played it. They usually don't bet so heavy on a missed draw, but I can't see not calling river here based on the way you played flop/turn.
