Another TPTK vs maniac

Villain is even a better sample of 55/12 over 80.
His AF on the flop is 12.

I cbet quite often. He had previously pushed me out of a pot or two when I had air but I dont think he had much either. I decided go all in at the next good opportunity.

Pre-flop: (3 players) Hero is BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
Button raises to $0.2, SB calls, Hero raises to $1, Button calls, SB folds.

Flop: K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($2.2, 2 players)
Hero bets $1.55, Button raises to $3.1, Hero raises all-in $12.2, Button calls all-in $8.75.

Was this a good opportunity given the action?

This looks fine.

Dude, I'm already like 8 buyins down for today on hands like this and one you saw before.. There must be something wrong... Or I just suck at hands reading.

well in this example you dont, your read is that he's a maniac, K8 is probably in his range, plus theres a good chance he could be bluffing

I call minraise and lead turn.

Unknown Soldier · #7 01-01-2007, 11:24 PM

why? You might aswell get it in now, why add another card to the equation?

Shaddux · #8 01-01-2007, 11:28 PM

Since he's a maniac, he is more likely to have air than a weaker K IMO. Getting AI here is probably fine, but I think a crAI on turn is better.

too fancy and unecessary, whenever you can keep things simple it's usually better to do so
