what do you think of Villain's play and what range do you put hero on?

[JadeRedstone]

Hero have an over pair more often the a set. So villain play is good. He is only a real dog to a set and slightly under dog to A's. He is infront K's and Q's

Villain=standard..Would've have raised a little more but getting them AI on this flop is the goal..

Hero appears to have a SET/combo draw or is over playing an overpair..Overplaying overpair would be based on heros read on how villain plays TP and draws...

PS..I think villain=HERO

meh, it doesn't really matter if villain is hero or hero is villain . . . i haven't had time to calculate equity vs hero's range, but i don't love villain's line all that much. i believe alot of the value from playing combo draws comes from fold equity. villain obv has zero here.

a better line for villain is at least a psr on the flop if not just shoving. i may change my opinion after i look at some equity calcs.

If hero is running 17/12, and I was villain I fold AJs pf bc I'm either gonna win a small one or lose a big one.

Once villain raises flop he's gotta call. After he goes AI, the pot is 65.75 (assuming no rake) and villain has 34.25 left, so hes getting 1:1.92 on the call. Hero will have QQ/KK/AA enough to make this call profitable IMO.

Why and how can you say villain has zero FE???? Hero open raises and makes a standard pot sized C-bet..Once villain raises he will be getting nearly 2 to 1 odds to CALL of his last $34.25 with nut FD alone..Odds against flush 1.86 to 1...

seems like your hand was being crushed by what you consider a bad play?

villains line is ok to me, if he decides to call that preflop and puts you on QQKK, he played fine.

[Cortz]

villain seems 2 have played his hand pretty standard

[Zagga]

Villain flopped TPTK with Nut flushdraw, his line was fine.

I play the same as villain.

Hero must have at least top two pair, a set or an open ended straight flush draw to make this play and I would fold everything else to the $14 raise.
