Low stakes live cash hand

<< < (3/3)

deanp27:
I posted on the other forum but will repeat here -  I much prefer flatting a reasonable strong hand OOP vs Mat than 3betting - he is gonna peel a vast majority of his opening range (he"s never folding his 54s etc) and make life pretty difficult for you on a number of flops. Just no need to take off against the guy at the table that hand reads pretty perfectly as opposed to the rest of the table.

Its ok saying he will peel worse (as he prob will) but it will be difficult for you to be able to cash in your advantage of having a strong hand preflop by the fact he is a good player who knows your likely range and has position on you.

As played you rep nothing by the river (not a flush, straight or overpair) and he is likely to call most bets with a single pair (or better) - i"d probably c-bet this flop if I was 3betting pre, but i"d just give up now vs Mat.

WYoung83:
Not repping anything at all now imo, so a bet will get snapped off with any pair. I would of defently c bet on that flop though, have some big back door equity, and he will just fold a bunch of times. If you are worried about decant players owning and out playing u after the flop, then dont 3 bet with AQo because its hard oop to someone who is good, so maybe i would of just called his raise because u are closing the action and your hand is still very good.

Edit... i also think that having the Ac is not really a blocker or key card at all here, because you cant rep a flush with the line u have taken, and your never going to get him to fold much either.

I posted this hand elsewhere obviously and have posted this there too..


I obviously appreciate the advice and thoughts and take them on board but now I"m faced with being 6,000,000,000 levels below someone who many poker players haven"t even heard of, and to cap that, I"m old!  this referenced two replies received over there obviously

I dwelled on the river and eventually folded having decided that I was right with my read that Matt had a similar hand to mine, ie AQ/AJ/A10 and that I was only winning vs one of those.
I showed the Ac though and suggested that a shove would have been hard for him to call and he declared that he had the same hand as me with no clubs but that the club on the river was a good card for him to rep. He suggested that he"d have folded had I lead the river, or had I check raised.
He may have been fibbing.

It"s tricky because I won"t get many chances to play against people like Matt at stakes that I am comfortable with and I didn"t want to avoid him because if we don"t test ourselves we don"t learn or improve. I picked a bad spot to get involved though, should have just kept raising his BB from the cut off really, that might have been fun.

3 bet pre.
Jam all in on the flop and when he folds, show your bluff by slamming your cards face up on the table and shout "Eat That ! muvvafvcker!! "
and "who do you think you are sitting at our table!!!!!"



or call pre and check fold
