  2. I really think the only hand you're beat by here is QQ...This isn't my level of play tho so I'd like to hear thoughts as much as you. My 2 cents.
  3. bet looks like he wants paying of by Ax i wouldnt be suprised if he turns up with AQ here, AK wouldnt shove imo. again not my level but im saying fold
  4. <strike>imo he either has 33/A3suited here or a worse ace. with AK/AQ/QQ he'd prob reraise pf.</strike>

    <strike>I'd say 30% chance he has 33/A3, 60% chance he has AX with X being jack or lower, and 10% chance of air/AK/AQ/QQ.</strike>

    <strike>I'd call.</strike>

    edit: i read the hand wrong. I thought you were the utg raiser.

    as played i think i'd fold. most likely for him is QQ or 33 imo, possibly AK/AQ. less likely a bluff or worse ace.
  5. how can he reraise it pf.......
  6. fk, nm, i read the hand wrong, too many "Johnnys"

    I'd call.

    Villain opend...I guess that opens AK/AQ a lot more along with QQ, but not 33 IMO
  8. I'm all in
  9. I mean maybe this is way off, but I feel like he really had you beat wouldn't he bet more for value? I mean look , if he knows you have an Ace, and he's got QQ full or AQ etc....maybe he's going to overshove hoping that you can't lay it down or that you think what im saying, that it's an overshove.

    But in order for him to make that play he has to know that you have an Ace, but how can he KNOW that you have Ax when your line was check the flop, bet-call the turn, then check the river.....he could easily be putting you on a mid pocket pair, or KQ.
    you checking the flop shows weakness so it's not impossible to think you are good here.

    If I had to guess though, I think he caught up on the turn with QQ.
    I mean we have no info about how this guy has been playing though.....
  10. dont think you can rule out raising 33 6 handed pre(player dependent maybe)
    i just dont think were ahead here enough % of the time to make it profitable????
  11. Hey JB. Depending on how active he was, do u think he'd be raising 33/A3 utg? Of course QQ would raise utg so that is another possibilty as well as AK/AQ. Sick spot, I would try to find the fold button.
     
  12. by the way, i meant by you checking the River, not the flop it shows weakness to him, I mean again did you really make that check on the river to trap/induce a bluff? if so you must call. If you did it because you were really unsure if you are good are not, then I think you have your answer, I guess you must fold. Although I still believe you could have hands like A10, A9 suited beat...its six handed and he's got a big stack....
  13. tough spot johhny, but i really think he has you beat.... it all depends on what he put you on... he def put you on an ace when u called his minraise... I think depending on how fast you called his minraise he can narrow you to just an ace instead of made boat .... so who knows, maybe you called too fast and he knows you are good enough to lay down just an ace with a push on river :)

    in overall i think he had you
     
  14. 1.if he has huge hand prob realises u have an ace and u may think hes bluffing with the overbet, i dont think he jams qq it is possible u could have that beat unless he has u on excactly what u have obv, aq most likely hand maybe a low sooted ace

    2.or if he bluffin he may think u wont be able to call tht amount with a hand like u have maybe thinks pot bet or less wont get u 2 fold but that will, im kinda leaning more towards this

    i dont know which 1 id choose lol, one of those real tuff spots that u normally end up folding cuz u dont know, pretty much player dependant

    gay spot, why aj sucks

    this
  16. UTG raise either PP or Big Ace.
    QQ,AK,AQ,33 possible you have a tie here with AJ....very off chance AT
    I would tend to believe
    that you are beat here 80 0/0 of the time sir. His raise on the turn could also be a scare tactic to get you to lay down your "A" esp. with his river push after your check, but its your tourney life at risk and he played it well. fold IMO to a better spot.......you still have 35k behind

    Edit: the way you looked weak....its a good stealing spot too
    Still I fold
     
  17. i would fold
     
  18. i think he has ace rag and is putting you on pocket kings
  19. snapcall. He thinks you have Qx. I think he tries to value his Kings or try yo make you fold your pair of queen with his NOTHING (overbet is the only way he can make you fold a queen here). he could also have a worst ace... its 6-handed

    Possibly the exact opposite, but if he thought OP hand kings he would value bet river imo.

    he could be a donk though. you cant just think every player plays normal poker
  22. Villain is not a donk...

    I reluctantly fold here...sigh. AQ or AK imo

    with two other players in the hand, don't you think JohnnyBelow would raise w/ KK pre?

    lol no problem, i did the same thing first time i read the hand (see page 1), which is why i initially said call, but once i read the action correctly i changed my thoughts to fold.
  26. fold pre?
  27. I never get away from this hand. Might have you beat, but he is a very good player btw.
  28. Does anyone fold pre to avoid situations like this? Just seems like a spot where you're almost never good w AJ...
     
  29. wow, um, I think fold and destroy something nearby. I could see KK here but doesnt seem likely the way he played it, but QQ & AQ (maybe A10) do seem to fit easily. He could have air but is that happening often enough to make this a profitable call? I dont think so but obv u would know better. to me ep raise\ check\raise call\ shove says QQ or air. If he has QQ and reships over top of you he risks losing you to a fold, if he flats the reraise he can shove the river on almost any card and if your calling a standard bet your probably calling his shove. idk take it fwiw, would like to hear your comments on this line if you dont mind.

    I do not think he is putting me on Qx.. I think he puts me on a weak ace.

    I am not sure though if he shoves river to get max value from a weak ace, or because he thinks I will fold it.

    I think I was was beat though so I folded. And I think he had Qs.. possibly AQ.
