slow play possible screw up -

[surfsk869]

i apologize for lack of hand converting but i dont think bodog hands can be translated. anyway i just sat down a 6 max 100 nl table. i am aware of my unorthodox, possibly donkish betsizing, but i felt as though i could extract from weaker hands. andyway,following happens ( assume all are 100 bb deep)


folds to me on button with QQ and i raise to 4.
sb and bb call.
flop A Q 8 rainbow. (pot 13$)

checks around to me - i check

turn is 6 and its checked to me again, i proceed to throw out a 5 dollar bet. both call

river is 9 - checks to me again, i bet 9.

sb raises to 30 and bb folds.

hero.... ( cold call / push )???

bet flop dude they're not going anywhere if they have an ace, if they have aq/a8 you get their stack.

bet more on the turn.

raise the river, maybe min-raise, he could be messing around since you played so weak and won't call a push, or he might have two pair and not believe you and call but fold to a push thinking you slowplayed. if he pushes you pretty much have to call cause he could have rivered a set, but maybe just owned you with a straight.

cliff notes: bet more everywhere.

mostly push, may call sometimes based on opponent

[surfsk869]

well the outcome was he had jt diamonds, which i was not happy about .. and yes, i did push and got pwnt xcore

If you want to extract from weaker hands, bet the flop (and don't bet 5).

Your 'unorthodox, possibly donkish betsizing' probably cost you a lot of money on this hand. Forget that crap. Get value on all 3 streets with a big hand.
