im refering to the turn betting not the river

Hi Lee

Any 2 soooted, nearly like being called wiv AQ off

ACESOVER8s

I'm not saying if he is right or wrong to think it but i would guess that he doesn't think your calling with a PP pre flop(probably expecting a re-raise) and the only thing other than that which stops him sharing the pot is a 9. As only 2 left he may well of also dismissed this from you range (again not saying he is right to do so).

That is by the river though, why he's calling 3 bets on the turn i don't know, but in fairness i'm also not sure why your making 3 bets into the preflop raiser on the turn. He has you beat here and you know it (as your six high with a draw and possibly up against a possible house) but your counting on him laying it down. As he called King high there was obviously no way he would have put down say pocket 10's or JJ's.

I would say there is either history here meaning he just flat out wasn't going to beleive your bluff or there was no history and you didn't know what he was capable of folding but tried to buy the pot anyway. I like it i'm a fan of buying the pot lol and maybe a better player would look for a different spot against you than calling for a split.

*** Addition, didn't see your second post while i was writing my mamouth response, why does he call the turn? don't know? lol ****

DOHHHHHHH

If a pro did that he'd be labelled a genius!

The river call is as bad if not worse than the turn.

If on the turn uve decided (in your head) to risk your stack to make him fold on the river, I would have made the third turn raise bigger, committing urself to the hand. Maybe just leave yourself £5 behind, or go all in. You raised from 7.50 to 12.50. Maybe define ur hand/bluff by raising to 22.50.

Some call though I must admit.


DOHH

 the player was raising every hand and always winning with junk at the show down...... 73 being the worst.....

needless to say 20mins later he was broke !!!!

Ahh, that makes sense. i hope he dumped his chips to you

Go over to Titan mate.

Over there K7 is quite an acceptable hand to call an all in with!!

In a SNG, anything above ace 5/K9 is an insta call to an all in.

They also consider any overcards to the board the nuts.

I will never, ever, moan about bad play on Sky again.

Mind you, in a week, I have earned more there than I did in a month here!

Think he must have had notes on you Lee. Can't see any other reason how you could call the turn there
