reads?

You would need a specific read to make 4b/f on the flop good imo

think you've played it fairly well to be honest, the stack sizes are a little awkward. If he had been deeper I would have liked the re-raise on the flop to have been bigger, but if you re-raised bigger here you would have been committed when he shoved. Therefore if you had every intnetion of folding to a shove the bet size is good.

I'm assuming he had been playing fairly tight and it's likely he had set of 6's or 7's rather then him being aggro and havong 89 or AJ

i can't see no reason not to stick it in
More likely to show up with a hand your beating ?

sets v overprs are just standard aren't they ?

I can't see any benefits to 5 bet folding on the flop

If your notes suggested he plays sets this way from the flop and say TPTK or overpair another way then you can fold right ?

Readless your all in right ?

Think maybe long term this is not good to keep laying these hands down ?

Generally it's swings and roundabouts with sets v overpairs, what comes around goes around :S
I just can't see how people fold in this situation, like set over set
I might have to study this more closley

If I raise his cold 3bet on flop I am getting it in if he shoves

Villains line is pretty strong when he cold 3bets, there are definitely players I would fold against at that stage. I also think flatting his raise is an option.

Depends if he raises Jx here, but if I dont think he does I would fold to his first raise 

liamboi11

i did not want to call because what do on the turn if im goin 2 call the turn mite aswell get it in on the flop but againist the player im 4 sure a was behind cost me just over third of ma stack to find out though lol,and yeah a think he could do that with aj kj but what iv seen of his play a think he would fold after a re re raise him on the flop he throws those hands away.

If thats the case call />>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>raise  on flop. When you 4bet you are bluffing with AA

liamboi11

would not put it like that im gettin more info about his hand so personally do you think its a bad fold in that spot?

grantorino

If the fold is good the raise is bad

When you raise you think he folds AJ, which is the top of the range that you beat. He never fold any hand that beats AA. So your bet is not for value, nothing worse calls, he might fold a lot but if he folds your cards dont matter. Its not a bluff either as nothing better folds. So raising is bad. Calling would be much better as he probably fires again with Jx

Generally raise folding value hands on flop is not a good idea without a very good read that villain his raising range beats you and he has a pretty wide calling range which you beat. We rarely have that clear a read

I can't fold on that flop.

When he makes it £4.60 you can't raise to £7.60 then fold it's just crazy especially on that flop.

Why is that flop especially good to get it in on? I think getting it in is prob fine, dont think its that great a flop to face a raise on though

liamboi11

ok thanks m8 its gd 2 hear different views makes me think in a different way and dudeskin why is it crazy to fold have you took on board he has check min raised then shoved over ma re re raise i think its clear hes beatin 1 pair but maybe a was wrong 

Dudeskin8

Yes the flop is very dry so only straight draws out and possible KJ, you have two aces so blocking AJ.

Still just 100 bigs deep im never folding here.

Dudeskin8

Why did you raise to £7.60 if you had any intention of folding?

If you think your beat fold, if you think he's bluffing call and let him bluff turn.

liamboi11

if he had aj,kj,qj with ma last raise he would fold here he was a soildid player so when he moves allin a know im beat i would not always fold in this spot just againist this player a went wae my gut and the way the action went.maybe your right why raise and then fold i wasnt convinced a was behind but asked the question and got an answer but thanks for your advice a will take everyfin on board from yourself every1

rancid

all in all the guy could easily have QQ or KK

FLATS PRE if no higher card he getting it in so hey ho lets go

This is bad right ?

grantorino

yeah, there are 2 reasons to raise

For value, ie will be called/raised by worse
As a bluff, to make better hands fold

Ops raise on flop acheives neither of these (assuming his reads are correct) so its bad. Raising for info is nearly always bad because it does the opposite of what it should- it makes better hands continue and worse hands fold
