I'd like to get input as to how others play this situation.

Villain: Standard Tight Aggressive player

Comments on preflop and flop are very welcome, but also I'd like to see how people would approach this street as it played out. What's your plan for the rest of the hand? Thanks.

Call him down, blind steals make people crazy sometimes. Lots of draws here that you are ahead of.

Thats totaly true. Blind vs blind seems like a mindgame to alot of people. One guy kept capping me all the way till the river with a bluff (as if I still fold then?)

I don't think we're dealing with TAG postflop players at this level. Villain could very well have the K here. Bet and if he raises reevaluate.

nerdking, if someone donks into you twice in a row do you put him on a good hand?

Xhad, whats this 180BB challenge about? (sorry for going offtopic here, just wondering)

nerdking · #7 06-02-2007, 01:42 AM

he's raised once and unknown. if he's raised our second donk on a dry turn, then we're gonna c/f the river

depending on your opponent (ie ... aggressive, and a little too aggressive in blind steal situations) double donking is great (for the vary reason you imply)

of course this is best when you and your opponent have had a fair amount of history together

big blind might go crazy with air, blind VS blind no need for respect, call him down.

I cashed out all my online poker funds right around when UIGEA hit, now I'm working on building a bankroll from the $30 or so I had left sitting on stars.

Not if your opponent sees your turn donk for the bs that it is and you decide to take a line that ends in folding your hand (as nerdking is suggesting here).
