NL4 ATo

Posted 8 years agoEdited 8 years ago

Vs unknown.

Ok so my thoughts in this hand were that I can definitely float the flop, and when an overcard comes and he slows down, it's time to start betting to fold out some of his low 1 pair hands.
He calls though, and the A falls so I feel I can definitely bet for value now, then he check raises small...

Ok well not sure how often he has 35, but does he play a set this way? I lean towards folding just because there's no real draws apart from 35 which got there, so I think more along the line of sets.

The thing is I just can't imagine ever seeing these guys do this as a bluff.

I never get credit to players at this limits to have a bluff here, especially with this line!
I feel like your line is good but we also must think of what he can have at this spot, what is he gonna pay you off with? I will probably bet abit smaller to get calls from a Q or an 8.

When he check raise I feel like its kinda wierd.
I would guess he have some kind of two pair A8 A4 A2...I dont think he has AQ since I surely would 3bet this pre vs a CO open.Q8s is also a possibility. Maybe a set but then I think he rather would check raise the flop or turn. If he plays a set like this is very very wierd. Or maybe he has a weak Ace and overplays it!

Im pretty sure I would fold here, especially vs an unknown.

Weird hand. I think raising the flop against his weak lead is better than encouraging him to carry on firing. We can utilise fold equity and will make a nice top pair hand some % on the turn.

As played I don't mind your turn stab but the river should be a fold.

If you think floating the flop is fine (which it probably is) I'd just check back turn in position anticipating showdown value.

As played the pot gets super weird and while I think calling is usually too thin here I also can't really blame you for making that play given the sizing. I suspect it's very very close and even if calling is a mistake it shouldn't be a big one.
