Default Turn bluff vs FTP regular

5-10 PLO heads up


Can't remember villians nick, it's something with Crazy*******. I'm pretty new to the site but I belive he's a regular. He plays very aggressive in position. I think he looks at me as someone who plays tight but still can make marginal plays. He is raising pretty much every hand preflop and so far I have mostly called and taken the pot on good looking flops.

In the hand he has 2k, I cover.

Villians pots it, I re-pot with Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], he calls


Flop (180) 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

I pot it, villians calls

Turn (540) 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

I check, villians bets 270, I pot it to 1350

Villians has something like 1450 left. I have asked two players whos game I really respect and they had different opinions. So that's why Im posting it here, what do you think? I will write my thinking later


Tony

I like it. Do you expect villain to fold A7?

Marginal, but I think he folds A7xx. Many other kinds of 7s+straight draws re-pots the flop I think and surely calls now. But because of my tight 3bet range pre I expect him to raise AK87/A897 type of hands on the flop when we are this deep. Is this wrong?

AK87 would be a pretty thin raise for him on the flop. It's hard to know whether this will work enough, depends how the session has been going. But I would almost always just let it go.

honestly your raise smells funny. I would NOT let go of A7 here because I'd be thinking that IS what you are betting.

If you're as tight preflop as you say, the best I'd put you on is AA7x. Well, something like that. My point is, the tighter your 3 bet range preflop is, the less likely he's going to give you credit for 76 or even a 7 there. Only thing you're getting to fold is something like 6+straight draws

With tight I'm not saying I only raise AA, actually prefer 3beting straight flush combos or T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] type of hands. This session I felt kind of card dead and therefore the lack of 3bets, I'm not sure what he thinks of my range. When I checkraise the turn I pretty much represent AA because I don't think he beats that most of the time, huge part of his range is just floating the flop. What hand plays like he did? IMO 2 pair+ re-pots the flop and alot of the time any 7 (if he puts me on AA because of my tight image) Thats how I would play those hands all day, maybe I'm off on this one.

When I stacked him the 2nd time for 100bb I held AAT9, he called my preflop 3bet and re-poted the flop. I called and he showed some crap like Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] for a pair and flushdraw. AA held up.

This deep I just belive he would try to push me off my hand, either by aggression on the flop with outs/made hand or by floating. When I pushed I just did'nt belive he had a 7/full house

The reason my friend did'nt like it was because he said a really good player might "float" a set on the flop, then bet out weak to induce my play.

If he belives my 3beting range is very thin why is rasing the flop with a 7 bad? I would and I definitely would raise a 7+straight draws. If you held AAxx here, are you not folding if he re-pots it on the flop?

You think a 7 is a likely holding for him then?

raising a 7 on the flop isn't much different from raising any 4, except against very loose opponents.
