400 NL vs LPer - Page 3

^ correct.

so are we suggesting c/c? What's the plan here

well that's what I did but I don't think it's good at all. although it enables me to do a good fold on the turn if he bets again. maybe I can make that fold on the flop and that's what I was questioning before making this thread. It just seemed impossible and unthinkable to me to check fold this flop on the spot, but what am I hoping for by check/calling here? we have already established that he is not betting the flop as a bluff or with a worse hand, ever.

if weaker aces are never in his range then you should never try to get big value from this hand. if you check and he bets you have an incredibly easy fold based on everything you have said. i would bet enough to get the shorty in and fold to resistance from the big stack. if he calls and turn goes check check maybe make another very small river bet that he can't fold to for giggles.

and loco why are you being so hostile, good players are trying to help you, you should be thanking them.

Loco, are u still advocating C/C or C/F over B/F? I don't get it. What kind of range are you putting him on for just calling your 3bet? AK/KK/AA only?. If you think he will just call you with AK, then I don't see any reason to believe why he wouldn't be just calling with JJ or QQ. If his range is AK/JJ+, then you're right he's only going to be betting the hands that beat you and checking the ones that you beat. Then theoretically, you should be able to just check/fold if that is his range. But given the fact that you're in the heat of the moment and you 3bet AQ and hit your hand I would think you're more inclined to C/C than C/F which is exactly what you did. Therefore, it would be better to B/F than C/C since it's going to save you money if you're never folding the flop to a bet, and even a small bet is going to fold out his weaker holdings.

It seems to me like what you're trying to imply in your posts is that C/F should be your only option. How much history do you have with the villain, and do you know his tendencies for calling a 3bet? From your posts, it looks like you don't have a whole lot of info about either so I don't think you can ever advocate C/F after 3betting AQ and getting an AKx board because that just seems wayyyyy too exploitable.

agreed... this is being way overanalyzed for a 111bb nl400 hand in a 3bet squeezed pot no less...

I am hostile? the only post that was hostile was towarded to Vic3Roy who didn't contribute anything to the thread and who isn't a good player. Or am I hostile because I disagree with better players?

spew? ok buddy... why do i get the feeling you are being completely results oriented?

don't get all mad because people aren't agreeing with you...

why do i get the feeling that everything I have said to explain my thought process and my read on the player has just been totally ignored by some of you guys?

yes its a spew. and im not the only one thinking it is. even twisted/freak agreed with me. Sorry for disagreeing, I should just be bandwagonning, my bad for making things so difficult.

i think this really depends on your image. If your really nitty enought that hes always folding AQ/KQ/AJ then bet once and be done.

IF your regularly bringing the pain then get it in.

only twisted said he thought it was a spew.. freak simply said he didn't think checking the flop was bad and i think he was primarily replying to myths post

btw... if you know it is spew vs this specific player why did you even post this hand? and why didn't you c/f the flop?

Did you read my last post? If you disagree with it, tell me how my reasoning is flawed.

sorry grass i wasnt replying to you in that post but to circa. I'll reply to your post soon.

circa; freak told me on msn "for what it's worth I think you are right"

But yes you are totally right I shouldn'tve made this thread in the first place, my bad. I made it right after the hand was played and didnt have enough time to think about it, but its a clear check fold after giving it some thought.

sorry everyone
