Flopping the nut straight on an AKQdd board
Early stages of a two-day live tournament, 6-handed table. Blinds at 100/200, no antes. Starting stacks 30k. Table reads: utter disregard for blind levels - huge over-bets OTF/OTT (in excess of 100% of pot), which were frequently being called down or re-raised resulting in end-size pots of c.10k.
UTG with 15k stack. Reads: had called down a big river bet with AAo on a 4-flush board and then complained about his bad luck. Tagged as weak / titled.
Villain in MP with c.22k stack. Reads: took a long time to take any action, weird bet-sizings (1/8 of pot having been aggressive pre-flop), had called down two or three streets of betting with weak holdings on more than one occasion already. Impression was that he was weak / a station.
Hero in BB with 35k stack.
Hero dealt J10ss.
4 limpers, including Villain. Hero checks thinking: (i) J10 flops well multi-way; and (ii) don't want to get re-raised off our equity.
Flop: AKQdd
Action: UTG bets 2k (into 1k pot), fold, fold, Villain calls 2k. Hero bets 6k into 5k pot thinking: (i) I have the nuts and want to charge FDs; and (ii) likely to be called by worse one-/two-pair hands given table dynamics.
UTG flat (and has c.9k behind). Villain re-shoves all-in for his remaining c.20k.
Hero?
