also I don't think villain will be raising sets on this uncoordinated flop at a 100% frequency especially pocket 10s that has this board locked down pretty hard. obviously flopped sets will not be calling flop to check back blank turn, so I think that line narrows his range ever further. say 10 9 and overpairs. I think when he checks back turn I should be good a majority when he bets river

I think the number of two pair combos is very slim since the only combos of 910 that should be in his preflop calling range are the suited ones (just an assumption) obviously this assumption is wrong in this situation, but if he is value raising a10 js and queens some of the time (since he will probably 4 bet some if not all his qs preflop) does that offset the combos of sets and 109 suited in his value raising range that I am losing too?

yeah I think folding flop is out of the question unless there is a strong read and some history.

stacks were 150bb effective. I do think xr river might have been best because he should almost never be showing up with a 2pair+ with the check back on turn.
what do we think about his play on the turn? if by him checking back turn makes him seem capped at say a10 then does that mean checking back turn with hands such as 2 pair is good because you will get paid off lighter on river? does that outweigh the fact that he should protect/value bet his hand on the turn? just a thought

Post | mattd93 posted in NLHE: 200nl river decision with aces

full ring 200nl
PREFLOP:
I get delt ahad in bb folds around to the btn who raises to 10$ (have no read on villain, never played with him before) I reraise to 28$ and he calls.
FLOP:
10d9s4h
I c bet 30$ and get raised to 80$ I call
TURN:
5c
I check villain checks behind
RIVER:
3s
I check villain bets 100 I call
villain shows 10s9h

should I be leading river for like 70-80$ and get value from worse and most likely fold to a raise or is a check call line on river best to let him value bet worse such as a10 jacks maybe queens and also let him bluff with some of his air and missed draws? I thought my line was ok when I played the hand, but any input would be appreciated!

good point about the river call, this type of player would most likely shut down on the river with sets/2pair and would continue with flushes/ top end of the straight

 I agree that against a polarized range that a fold would be a mistake on turn, in hindsight his range is very narrow and value heavy that it should be a fold against this particular player.

if he is more likely to raise turn ip with naked fd then wouldn't folding turn be a mistake?

Post | mattd93 posted in NLHE: turn/river decision 1/2nl

this hand happened at full ring 1/2nl

have been playing at table with villain for about 8 hrs and didn't seem to get out of line much, seemed to play pretty tight abc.

preflop  I raise to 8$ Ah As from utg. folds around to villain on the btn who calls (300bb effective stacks) sb and bb fold. heads up to the flop

FLOP: 4d 10s 5h

I cbet 15$ he calls

TURN: 3d

I bet 40$ villain raises to 100$ I call

RIVER: 2d

I check villain bets 155$ I call

villain shows 67 diamonds

where did I go wrong in this hand? was it the turn call? when I hit the straight on the river can I fold now that I beat all of his 2 pair and set combos? its very hard for him to rep a flush draw on the turn as he isn't the type of player to raise with a naked flush draw, it would need to be a combo draw type hand such as A10dd or A6dd. does villain have enough bluffs in his range to justify the river call or should I just fold on the turn based on the fact that he is abc and hasn't gotten out of line from what I saw?

calling flop is for sure best, but I don't think 10s is a hand that we want to be turning into a bluff in this situation with stack sizes the way they are. a shuv will not fold out any overpairs/sets and if we get called all we have done is bloat the pot with 20% equity against his calling range. think call call fold is the best option in my opinion.

was live so I don't have stats on him, but he is a full time 500nl pro who plays an agro style, but haven't seen him get too out of line, seems to be a thinking player. I do agree that calling the flop would be better than raising and bloating the pot against a calling range that has me in rough shape. he folds most of his air and folds no better hands, flush draws shouldn't be calling the 3 bet on flop and leading turn. I raised for some protection, but again don't know if there is an argument for doing so.

full ring 200 nl pocket 10s utg raise to $8 folds around to the bb who makes it $30 I call. effective stacks are $500. villain is a 500nl reg who is known to be pretty agro.

flop 782hh

villain bets $35 I raise to $90 he calls

turn 9s

villain leads for $175 I call

river Ad

villain shoves I fold.

is there any merit to calling river here, I am getting a good price but don't know what I am beating besides pure air which I don't think he can have often with his line.

200nl live full ring, utg straddle 4 ppl limp and I limp in bb with k6ss with 180bb. utg checks preflop.

flop 6hqs8s:

I check utg bets $12 into 30$ folds around and I raise to 30$ and utg calls (utg 200bb deep)

turn a 3d:

I check utg bets $55 into $90 I call

river 10h

I check utg bets $55 I shove all in and get called by q7off.

some reads on utg:

recreation player, has taken similar lines prior with top pair weak kicker. seemed to me that his range was capped at top pair and was certainly not the type of player to construct a river raising range for me. my river shove was designed to get him to fold a queen which I was certain was a huge part of his range by the river, he would have bet larger than 55 on river with 2 pair+. also like I said he used a similar line of betting same amount on turn and river with an unimproved top pair. in hindsight my line doesn't give me very many nut hands and leaves me with a lot of draws since any queen worse than aq I just call the river (aq I would raise preflop as well) and any sets/2 pair I lead turn for value/protection and lead on river for value. is my range really relevant in this spot against a rec player? if you know he has a capped range is trying to blow him off his hand advisable even though you cant represent many nut combos? again we are talking recreation player.

I normally wouldn't play k6ss, but we were deep and I thought the players at the table made enough post flop mistakes that if I did hit I could exploit there mistakes. I know my turn check is not optimal in this spot with my hand, and I called turn knowing if I hit a 6,k, spade I would be ahead. should I check raise turn and barrel river?

I was also playing pretty tight and there shouldn't have been any read that I was out of line.

advice please!

thanks
