    Timzc1 = ??

    pretty easy fold right? str and flushes are possible, all I can beat is a bluff...

    OR...

    I quickly OPR villian and I saw that he was a pretty horrid player, at least given the data I quickly looked at I was somewhat tempted.

    OBV the fact that he is a losing player who often busts VERY early raises the liklihood my top two has his 3* pot shove, but he obv could have some kind of random hand that beats my two pair... and because he is a bad player he overbets the pot...

    is this an opportunity? or is it an easy fold?

  2. Sick spot - you can beat a bluff but thats about it. He checked the turn looking for a C/R and now he wants to bet, or thats what he claims & its all just a bluff :)

    It looks like a couple of weak clubs to me. I expect he has about 9c6c in the blind here if its a hand.

    my 2 cents
  3. I did fold.

    and then a few hands later i saw him do:

    ... fires out all in (but just a pot bet this time to a smaller stack, so a diff situation of course) on river with two pair when str and flushes are possible (perhaps unlikely) and better two pair..

    again makes me think I mighta missed an opporunity.

  4. oh and one more thing: look at how bad BOTH of these played this hand! it's VERY common in 3 rebuy...

  5. Put in a bet on the turn to define your hand.

    Personally, with I'm done with the hand on that flop with this many people calling after your preflop raise. But that depends on your style.
  6. Lets see, I have 2 random & the action to me is raise/call/reraise - Ummmmm.... I know, I'll call all in because the're soooooooted - yea - 3r - FE = 0 :)

    Just a few thoughts.

    I wouldn't but a random A8 as to unlikely :)

    You will notice that as bad as it looks open/pushing the 9cTh here is actualy an OK play - he did get called by a lesser hand. In this one he check/called TP on the flop & checked top 2 on the turn then open pushed the river. This actualy makes a crappy flush a more likely holding in the first hand and even opens up botom set etc. as possibilities. Having a habit of slowing made but vulnerable hands would tend to get you busted early quite often, especialy if you're open pushing them on the river.

    another 2 cents
  8. I agree that the second hand he played a bit better (given stack sizes etc), but the aj = wow bad.
