One of those where you see the 'you lost, muck?' button and are like 'wait, how did he...oh...oh he had J8...fml.'

Bet turn. People hate to fold boats and since u didnt bet flop you will get looked up with all pocket pairs. I like the river jam since he will look u up trying to play the board quite a bit. You cant check flop and turn though here imo.

 

[vanquish]

live pokers:

hand:
i limp T8hh UTG, semi-LAG guy with $900 pops to $8 from UTG+2, everyone folds back to me, i raise to $25 with about $260 behind. he calls.
flop:
983ss
i c-bet $32, he calls.
turn:
4x
i check, he checks back
river:
6c
i check, he is about to bet $85, but instead bets $55 into whatever the pot is.
i say: do you ever bluff?
he says: uhh sometimes
i put on my cape and call
he has KQ no spades
he says: nice call

the table ejaculates.



another hand:
i open to $12 from CO with J7o, with about $250 behind, weird LAG guy who covers raises to $27 from the SB, everyone folds to me, i call.
flop: Q83r, he checks pretty quick
i think about barreling but decide to try something fun on later streets.
turn Q bringing flush draw.
he fires $50.
i minraise pretty quickly, he calls.
this is awesome because he always calls the minraise and c/f's unless he improves. river comes 4 or something, he checks pretty fast, i shove pretty fast, he folds pretty fast.
ty for putting in a ton of money and folding sir.

another hand where some weird solid guy overcalls from the blinds after i 3bet IP with AKo, we're about 250 BBs deep, he then donks two streets kinda small, (i don't connect w/ board), i float both, and then raise his river bet like 3x and he folds pretty fast

Must admit, when you fought back and 4-bet from the BTN I nearly visited spewtown with QJo but fought off the urge.

Must admit, when you fought back and 4-bet from the BTN I nearly visited spewtown with QJo but fought off the urge.

QJ wouldnt have been spew there.
Had QT or KT if im remembering corectly and just thought i had to make a move or i would never end.
I was starting to think you where a super user cause u 3-bet every time opened with 55,Ax ect and folded the only two times i actualy had a hand i would have stacked with.

I agree with this but this table was pretty juicy witch made up for the countless light 3bets .
