I feel like when villain bets this river his range is a flush 90%+. But notice this is first level of 1k and I bet flop/turn into two opponents before c/shoving river. Felt like his hand was almost always of the 89,j10,j9,q10dd variety, anybody like this or am I reaching too far trying to get him to fold between 2nd-7th nut type of hands. -
I'm actually curious to see the results because I've always wondered if this works online too. I'd also be curious to know if he actually had a flush here and folded. I know live pro's talk about it all the time, but never figured anybody would fold a flush in an online tournament (on this safe of a board), not a 109$ or under anyways.
I think he could shove up with 44,77,22 here also and find a fold on the river. Other than medium flush,44,77,22 I don't see what else he can have, so I suppose your river shoves looks scary to all of those. -
The only hands I think you're getting him to fold here are low flushes which there are obv aren't a ton of cuz of the cards out there... If you're 90% sure he has a flush, I have a very very hard time making this bet, cuz I would literally expect to get called almost everytime he has a flush.
Also, I see regs making these kinda moves once in awhile and it seems most the time, they do not have the "flush"/hand they're trying to represent. Personally I would just give it up here, unless you got some insanely sick read here that he's folding a flush, which I'm doubting... even in a 1k. -
how is he going to bet the river and fold a flush??? who bets the river unless he has the nuts or nothing...and the nuts in his eyes very well could be a set against the range he puts you on...i doubt he folds a set more less a flush.
-
I like the play and would take this line as well somtimes but if he knows your cappable of this it make it so much tougher. I doubt he calls he with a set lower then fives unless hes donking it in but hes betting every set on the river the way it was played. Interested to see the results think some can fold flush here but risky play
-
U really think hes folding a flush? idk this play looks like it might get a flush to fold 1 out of 100 times
-
In theory I love this play with the A/d in your hand, but you really have to be giving him a ton of credit to lay down any of his river betting range here, even sets.
I imagine this sort of thing has been happening to siola all week though. -
lol this
wtf is this play, i don't get it why are u pulling off such an elaborate play so early with so many bb with so little invested
and why are u building this pot with AK hi to pull of this river move?? -
I could be wrong but trying to make random players fold flushes on non-paired boards isn't how to make money in poker.
Very few donkament players have a c/r river value range. Usually when regs c/r river their thought process is "man... I'm beat here... but.... I reallllly wanna win this pot... I'm all-in"
Oh, and fwiw, I'm a pro at making elaborate bluffs early in 1ks when I try to win the tourney in the first level too... not hatin.

Def agree with everything ape said if grtwhitehoop wasn't a reg...
I think the fact that this is reg on reg could really make him fold some flushes here, all the way up to Kxdd possibly, but that might be assuming too much with this particular player. Dunno what history you guys have or anything like that, but with limited history this doesn't seem like the worst bluff to pull since he's going to be giving you a ton of credit with your line, and you have your blocker. Villain seems like a v good player who would be capable of laying down a big hand here with your perceived "tight image" pre ante with a limited dynamic. Yes there are way better spots since we are kind of assuming a few things, but its just so unlikely your bluffing here at 10/20 in the 1k Monday that I think its a pretty profitable line vs the right players. The problem is figuring out who those players are while continuously dumping your buy-in pre ante trying to find out.
Cliff notes : I think its fine if you think hes capable of folding a flush with about 40 percent of his stack in. -
lol yeah been a tough last two weeks :-( :-(

edit: i like this more in plo -
Sick brag about knowing what beats what in poker. :)
He probably does have a flush a high percentage of the time, especially since three people saw the turn, and I personally don't like this play without any history/ more concrete reads. Out of curiosity would you also take this same line with AdAs? -
Good question, I think that I would more often check/call turn with AdAx and then check decide on river given bet sizing and what not(deciding between check/folding and check/shoving since I think we have best here about 0% of the time). I'm not sure which looks more credible and more likely to fold out flush, if anybody folds flushes, check/call+check/shove or bet+check/shove.

i feel like if im grtwhite im not folding any, sets any flushes....u potted it utg...so hes not gonna put u on a set or flush imo...ur line looks super strong like qq+ and ad hands but i would not be folding sets or flushes to the line ur taking.
i understand u gotta be creative sometimes but this seems spewy at 10-20 in a 1k.
reaching 2 far here think -
Results???
-
agreed, villian also folds 1 pair hands he turns into a 'bluff' on the river. a bit ambitious but I don't hate it vs. a capable reg.
