AQo vs. taggy player

orange · #1 03-07-2007, 10:33 PM

villan seems to be pretty taggy.

he and I have frequent history of me pushing him around. He opened twice in an orbit and I rr-ed both times, him folding once PF and the other time on the flop to a c-bet.

We had a mediumish hand an orbit or two ago. he opened, I 3-bet with KK, he called. flop came KQx, I bet smallish, he called. turn came A, i checked he checked. river blank, i bet he folded.

so, he might be getting frustrated, but i'm not really sure. we had one more hand after that where I raised pf and c-bet the flop, he c/r-ed me and i folded. he runs pretty taggy. no real hands have gone to showdown between us though. hero is relatively in line aside from messing with this particular player.

easy call? easy fold? eh?

I think I fold. Maybe. When TAGGY players start betting out like that right after C/Cing the flop, they are not normally messing around. The bet just is so small, unless he is tricky, he clearly wants you to call.

So I guess the question is, if you have ever seen him be tricky, call. If not, fold!

If he's tag, this look like flush to me.

ehhh based on your history it seems like a call but i dunno.

This is a [censored] spot. I'm inclined to assume villain is on level 1 and is trying to get value from his flush.

Of course if he's smart and knows you're solid, he could be on level 2 and making his bluff look like a VB, but that seems less likely.

Fold.

btw, do you guys play other streets the same?

Rolon · #8 03-07-2007, 11:02 PM

ever once and awhile I minraise the turn if I really don't thikn he has it, trying to repersent it and whanot. I love minraising though so don't listen to me.

I would minraise the turn and check behind river. Obviously fold to another bet or turn reraise.

I think a lot of bad TAGs actually show up with a set here a lot of the time. They were looking to c/r the turn, but the draw got there so they assume you wont bet and now they have to protect their hand against a lone spade.

Did you call, and did he have a set? (I think I'm right)
