AAA facing river strengh

xd40 · #1 10-17-2007, 08:06 PM

He's a fish, no stats on him. I joined recently the table and have been playing laggish and have 3bet somewhat frequently.
I took 100bbs off him recently.

not sure what to do on the river, as his pot bet means a ton of strengh most of the time, but he was fishy playing a ton of hands and i have been agressive but ..

i would call an (relatively) unknown here too, but if you have a read that hes passive etc then a fold is fine

How do you know he's a fish? Basically this spot is impossible since his range is polarized betwen very good hands or a complete bluff. My standard would be to fold, though i probably call around 15-25% of the time.

he's a fish because i saw him limping, minraising pf, doing crazy 3 barrels with air against a nit in a wet board, and just spewing money randomly..

Aight, there's different sort of fish, i think you made a good call in the first hand, and in the second aswell. Looks good IMO

hotbacon · #8 10-17-2007, 08:24 PM

oh wait, i thought that you folded the river in hand 2. i think the river call there is really bad, people hardly ever bluff in this spot (after you check behind like that they assume that you're calling a random river bet)

xd40 · #9 10-17-2007, 09:21 PM

hand 2 i have equity against his range, given it wasnt the first time i 3bet him, i think hes calling range, checking then vb river is something like JJ-88,AJs+,KQs,QJs,AJo+,KQo,QJo which gives me a ton of equity. even a set is unlikely because he would want to put money in the pot at least on the turn if he planned on c/r the flop.

I'd check that turn a ton without a better read. As played I think it's a fold tbh.
