    i have no idea what he overshoves the river with,

    could it rly be for value? wats he hoping i call with after how i played my hand
     
  2. Hands he'll be shoving probably includes two clubs, KJ, J9, 75, and sets. I don't like your odds but I'm weak-tight.
  3. Well imo he either has a terribly played J9, 2 random clubs, 88, or just air... his line makes close to no sense, which is why I would tend to give a solid player credit for more than 1 pair here early in a well structured tournament.

    Looks like a sigh-fold to me.
     
  4. Doubt I fold vs ccini....

    EDIT: Doubt I've ever folded vs him ;)

    i checked the river bc i felt alot of his range was made up of draws (or a float) and i wasnt sure how many hands i could get to call a river that im ahead of so i figured my best play was check/call but i didnt expect him to shove and it just confused me.

    thus the post

    should i be leading river? how many hands is he gona pay me off on the river with

    You need to learn how to bet/fold hands with showdown value. Defaulting into check/call mode just to get to a showdown is very fishy.
  10. im calling here as played.......definitely betting river....doubt he's floating you very often on the turn here this early....

    hes repping like literally 1 hand....cant really understand y he would even shove it...gotta assume he would think u would v bet most Q's on the riv
  11. bet/fold river. As played I fold and feel fine about it
     
  12. He's already lost one sousand of his starting stack he's obviously on mega tilt... uhh but I think I still fold.

  14. u shoulda been the one shoving the river imo, ez shove

    fail.

    only hands he's value shoving are 4s and 6s.. possibly 10s.

    edit: is it just me or if he bet river, he's basically turning his hand face up? as long as ccini knows you won't stack off w top top he can profitably shove atc on the river over your tiny valuebet.

    obv he doesn't know that
  17. if he wasn't high or drunk or anything he's never bluffing here
  18. damn this spot is gross looks like a fold

    i doubt hes making a play on u this early and his line for a 75, 97 or 88 doesnt make sense at all. 75 and 97 i doubt he plays even tho hes in position, and theres no way hes floating 88 or possibly think 88 is good on the turn when u bet/ he calls. i assume he could be bluffing here with KJ but this looks like a flopped set. J9,Q10 is possible too but this line just smells like a set of 4s, 6s, or10s to me.

    and i agree with u i think check river is smart option only hand u can really get called by is KQ maybeeee QJ
  19. ppl think pokercinni is way crazier than he really is

    id imagine we see J9s here the vast majority
     1
  20. against that guy my first instinct was to fold, but i think i prefere a call now for obv reasons.



    i do think that pokerccini is good enough to understand that we have pretty much the top of our range holding AQ here, so an over-shove for value doesn't make a lot of sense obv.

    i expect him to have like AJ or KJ of clubs a good % of the time obv. or even AK of clubs that he may have decided to play that way.


    against a good laggy or a middle to high stakes good cash villain i think it becomes an easy call, but i don't put pokerccini in this cathergory obv.

  21. I generally don't like his sizing if it is a value bet. You have the very top of your range and you still can't call imo. If he is bluffing I think it works a vast majority of the time vs the range you're likely to have so he can obv be making a play but I just can't imagine being good often enough to justify a call.

    u dont need to always bet/fold if there are few hands that call u and still loose to our AQ, why not induce a bluff from busted draws???
     
  23. if i call this river and loose ill feel fine about it, but if i tank/fold and then he shows AJ of clubs to the table i think i stop poker lol

    It's pretty simple iyam. Pokerccini has a big hand and figures OP is a random and is either bluffcatching or not, regardless of his bet sizing. So he jams a monster and hopes for a call.
  25. that would be pretty wrong to think that ppl will react the same way regardless of the bet sizing here. just sayin'
     
  26. Top top < Pokerccini's values hove range here. He has more value in his range here than bluffs. Fold imo.
  27. I would have bet the river. As played I prolly sigh and lay it down. I expect he has a str8 here most of the time.
     
  28. I like bet/folding the river here. As played, I fold.

    not sure we see J9 as much as other hands that beat us. but the first comment is way true.

    im torn between bet/f the river... both have their merits imo.
