I'll post full hand later
p.s. time bar nearly expired before he called.
Maybe pocket 8's although you may raise them pre.
Another king maybe ?
or pocket 2's prob pocket 2's
Would he not do this with KK? Surely the bet sizing is perfect in NOT scaring the customer off?
bet sizing is weird, i think 87 makes most sense but could easily be bluff or 65
reraise flop more. Probably tried to make three times his raise but had socks on so couldn't count properly.
Raise turn more. As Percival says,the all in is more comfortable on the river.But any reraise on the river is almost putting him all in anyway.
I'm happy with what I was trying to achieve but perhaps my bet sizing needs to be worked on a little and he nearly folded, so with a few tweaks I'll get this sort of play through next time.
Thanks for your inputs on this chaps.
raise pre if you are playing, no matter what you have imo
Fold flop readless, if you want to raise make it bigger.
Turn is basically a blank I prob check back.
Fold river, when he donks it I think he's usually strong. Your hand looks like a set or missed draw of some sort
In Response to Re: Sweat my opponents hand.: The reason I did it this way was to see if I'd told a convincing enough story through the hand that it's going to get a fold from most people.As Dohhhhhhhhh has pointed out the fella has a hard time folding top pair.
FWIW I after he's checked the turn, I took it as a sign of weakness which is why I bet(should've been more).With him leading the river, my thought was that this was the most he could afford to lose if I called whilst being big enough to possibly get a fold.
I don't often post hands as normally I know why I've lost but this one I needed other people's views.
As always, fellow players provide a different perspective and it's something I'll try to remember in the future if I make similar plays.
Thanks for the input, poker is a continual learning curve.
to me there are lots of mistakes here. i dont understand why you seem so intent to make this pot so big
pre flop - raise. you have a good player in the bb who you would be better off getting out of the hand. also you can squeeze villain of weaker hands.
flop - your reraise is so small that it doesnt allow you to identify much about his hand. we can only really eliminate air from his range. he could make the call with an 8 or many of the possible draws.
turn - bet is too small. are you expecting him to fold a king to that bet? he has every reason to think he is ahead but also it is not expensive for him to re evaluate on the river.
river - when he leads you know you arent ever ahead. why are you trying to make things so tricky? just fold and play the next hand. you dont need to win every hand youre involved in.
you put your opponet to a tough decision on the river but there was no need to do it
He bets a limped pot 3 way with a player still to act, which indicates he prob has something. You raise, he calls, which means he prob has a draw or at least a king, but again depends on reads. When he checks turn I wouldnt read it as weakness, its pretty standard after he flats flop raise, I prob check back because 7 doesnt change much. His river donk is weird, when I see a hand go like this its more often strength than weakness. maybe he should fold to your shove, but you should have 44,88 or a missed draw and your sizing looks more like a draw imo (also he surely expects 88 to raise pre sometimes). Alternatively, he may not be thinking about any of this he may just think I have tp all inz
