Finished £6 up in a drunken 10nl home-game with 2 friends on Sat night, mostly thanks to the final hand...friend 1 raised to £1 pre, friend 2 called, I shoved £13 with A4o thinking "f**k it it's the last hand why not and they might call with junk as it's the last hand". Friend 1 tanked for ages then folded, friend 2 called with KTo. Flop was K23 rainbow, turn was a K, everyone was like that's it all over only 4 outs now, but the river was a 5 Mwahahahahahaha giving me the straight He couldn't believe it! Finished with £26 for £6 profit as I had rebought once, pretty good bb/100 I would think as we probs played only ~100 hands (my god it feels slow, thinking of getting a card shuffling machine!). So much preflop limping went on it was unreal, I even joined in with it cos it's no fun to fold everything for over half an hour...won quite a big pot with 92 when I flopped 2 pair.

I use Agg % not afq so I don't know about that, but anyways here is my opinion.

Hand1:
3 bet pre usually, call is also fine occasionally. OTF look at his cbet %, I find it weird how he would check that board then call instead of cbetting. OTT call is fine. OTR, I think is a fold if you're going by maths and pot odds. Generally don't want to get all in post with one pair, also getting very bad pot odds. Even though the way he has played this looks like monster or absolute nothing tbh as what hand can he have here? queens full is unlikely, so is a 6 and shoving 6 on river makes no sense. So I would either think he has K high flush/queens full here or nothing (but u never know at these stakes..) I can see why u call and I don't think it's a bad call.

Anything over 50% AfQ is aggressive, so this guy on 65% is pretty darn aggressive.

Thanks for the comments I pretty much agree with everything you said...his range OTR is majorly polarised to monsters and air. His aggressive stats combined with the unusually large river bet (if I had a monster there I wouldn't bet pot on the river) made me think a bluff was quite likely. He had AK and I won but I still can't work out whether my call was good or not lol, close I think.

Depends who villain is I think, if he's a fish then donking can indicate strength, if he's a reg donking it may indicate weakness. I probably call and see what he does OTT.

 

[ScottishMatt]

Donking is super weak, but with this board a raise doesn't net you any value. Probably call and see what happens on the turn.

Really looks like he has AA with those dumb min raises pre, but I'm never folding, I'd probably 6bet shove pre though and hope he has AK or QQ.

[ScottishMatt]

I think 4-bet shoving pre might be the best move. I think it is the best way you can get action from AK/QQ and if he has AA, well you were going to get stacked anyway.

 

[doomasiggy]

blegh, I remember now why i stopped playing cash. Can never tell what to stack off with pre.

EDIT: 100% sure the 66 hand is a raise more otf then jam turn looking back at it. Doubt he knows enough beluga to fold the flop ever.

Can't work out whether calling or shoving is better. If you call you can't fold the river so I'd probably just shove the turn - his range here has enough Kx hands, 2 pair hands and FDs to make shoving profitable I think, and yo have good pot equity.

[ScottishMatt]

33 hand. Raise pre. Don't mind a double barrel but be wary of people giving up the betting lead and still continuing in the hand. I think bet/bet/check is the best line. He can have some overs with diamonds in them. Bet/fold .40 and check the river.

AT hand. Dunno if TPTK is good here, guy is pretty passive and now he wants to play for stacks, alarm bells ringing here. If you have knowledge that suggests he can raise a draw then getting it in might not be a bad play. Without this I say a fold is the best option, other than him spazzing 99/T9, or something of that nature I can't see you being good here.

Ye he really probably wasn't thinking of what he could represents and just thought that being hyper aggressive and representing everything he could get u to fold. You are getting ~2:1 pot odds, break even if we are correct 1 out of 3 times, and with the line he took I think this is a fine call. Very read dependent at the time as well.

Guy was 27/15

7/9, 5/7 straights beat u A/2,4,5/7,9/10,J/Q,K/A of spades all beat u. We beat four lower sets. Not even counting 2 pair as the chances of him raising sets on this board is low, but two pair is extremely low. Basically raising is the worst move you could of done here. Imo the river is a fold, or a call at the very very most.

Also posting a ton of hands I like it.

guys 20/7 over like, 20 hands.

We are either slightly ahead, e.g 70% against flush draws and open enders. Or majorly behind here against sets, two pairs, overpairs or even not doing well against the straight flush draw. Don't want to be getting it all in with TPTK usually and when he raises it's grudgingly a fold. Also an AG stat would come in handy here.
