    I was pretty sure he had 99-qq here and since i didnt think he would call a turn bet and a river bet with a marginal 1 pair hand like that i decided to check turn and make huge big river bet. Then only thing i dont expect happens he JAMS..seems like a fishy by him if he had set so what do you guys think....RESULTS LATER
     
  2. call to me, his line really makes absolutely no sense to me and since you made this post you probably lost the hand, but its still a call
  3. snap call and lose to A 8 sooooooted =)
  4. Seems like a fold to me but I dont think i could get away either... I would of probably checked the river after checking the turn... It avoids everything that happend. He flats flop raise, check/calls flop... seems like a set to me..

    maybe u got lucky and he has KK? u never know
     
  5. I'd be shocked if he had 99-QQ here... that'd be pretty terribad. As the other guy suggested KK is possible I guess, and AA is as well. Obv boats are in there too, though I don't know how many small PPs he's r/c pre OOP.

    Anyway, I'd probably muck but I'm a nit.

    edit: meh, didn't notice that clubs didn't get there. that changes things a bit...

  6. fist pump and snap call
  7. scatch that.... i dunno..... why the hell didn't you bet the turn? i'd still prolly call.
  8. im pretty sure hes set mining preflop, and even though its terrible to call with low pairs preflop in this situation, he has 66.
  9. i call. i think u checking turn may induce him to think his 99-QQ is goot here..well actually i think he bets river if he thinks his pair is good..or @LEAST c/c river and not c/r allin..i changed my mind. FOLD for sure. what are u beating here. If he put u on bluff he would just check call river.. my guess is he quadded up or 6's full.
  10. fold vs most
  11. My initial reaction was call..But it just seemed like he wouldnt check jam with 9s or js or something like that so even though he line made no sense i decided to muck

  12. Agree with damage, terrible set mine but I would think he has a boat in this spot.
  13. With your reraise preflop, he cant possibly think he's getting you to fold the river with a big PP which is a big part of your range so he really cant be bluffing unless he gives you the credit to fold a pair and he's bluffing. Fold for me, i dont see enough river bluffs to make it a call.
  14. without reading replies, I'm calling all day--and if I'm wrong about this, I'm quitting poker.

    Without reads on him saying that he's capable of raising 66, 44 or 88 or whatever utg and then calling a legit sized reraise, I can't imagine you're beat. I mean mb he has quad 8's. That's the only likely hand i can put him on that beats u, imo. Call.
  15. Alright, first off set mining with any pair here isnt bad at all. Callign 340 with over 6k behind when we are this deep isnt bad at all IMO. When he 3 bet i put his range to JJ-AA or AK, not familiar with his play so not sure if he 3 bets light. (it being early i doubt it)

    So when he bet the flop i decided to call once and reeval the turn..When he chked behind it was strange to me and i couldnt see a very strong hand checking behind. So my plan was to check shve the river and represent a monster here. I was fairly certain i could get jj or qq ot fold.. Didnt think AA would fold so im quite surprised.

    My hand which did not matter was 10 10. My shove on river was purely for bluffing. I might take a line similar to this with a set also, and def an 8 ( knowing he was on an overpair and would likely bet for value on river)
  16. FML.....ASK N E BODY WHO PLAYS WITH ME I'N NOT ONE TO EVER LOOK FOR REASONS TO MAKE ANY SORT OF BIG LAY DOWN!! I JUST WOULD FEEL LIKE A TOTAL GUPPIE IF I CALL THERE AND YOU JUST SHOW ME THE SACK!! WELL PLAYED ON YOUR PART

    Well i feel like the guppie when you snap me with AA..LOL Your chk on turn made no sense to me...Was it strictly for pot control? i instafold turn if you breathe at that pot.
  18. I check turn beacause im pretty sure you will fold 99-qq and im trying get max value, so i figured i would check turn and bet big on river that way you are forced to call with overpair

    Oh, I think its a pretty easy call tbh. I've noticed most tournament players do not have the foresite to c/r a river for value and are usually bluffing in these spots. Perhaps he played a set very tricky. It could have been a good laydown but I'm not folding there. Also, clubs missed...
  22. heres the thing, u FIN LEVELed this cat into donk shoving river, on top of that u PErfectly ranged him for 99-qq which is spot given the action(only because hes fishy since 99-jj are not calls pre in this situation). So why the f did u fold on riv when u pwnd the rest of the hand so hardcore. sigh
     
  23. i call very quickly too and i'm not being results oriented. your hand screams AK on the turn and as such an aggressive player who had intended to give up on the pot may put you in. as ape said very few players effectively use the c/r on the river for value. I'd be expecting to see broadway clubs or possibly even a 9T of a diff suit.

    also there is no way set mining here is bad this deep against a seemingly very tight 3betting range.

  24. I Like the call too, I think your AA is very disguised here, and your overbet looks like a steal, if he does one of those hands that beats you then GG but you can't wait all day- I see AA once every 10 hours.... go for it
  25. I would type in chat box, fuck I run so bad...call...lose to quads. But ya, I think he could easily be bluffing here so u gotta call. Maybe u guys were chopping... ;-)
  26. are you losing too much value to check the river if you dont plan to call shove?

    This was precisely my thought process throughout this hand--i admit being leveled when he snaps with AA however his hand was very disguised and didn't see him calling me without aa or kk. I made an aggressive chk raise all in, which i will do with a set here also knowing that he at least has an overpair which some people cant fold shorthanded.

    And set mining is absolutely not bad at all here when we are almost 200bbs deep.

    I really hope you kidding me about 99-qq not being calls pre in a shorthanded tourney 200bbs deep....LOL
  29. I insta fold. This is a perfect spot for him to try and take a flop and position with a small pair or suited A8 cause he is getting great implied odds off of your 3 bet. On the river, if he is thinking you are bluffing, he would flat call unless he thinks that you are bluffing and he can get you to lay down by re-bluffing, but that is not likely enough for this to be a good call. Your river bet does not look like a bluff so much and it looks like a a big hand. He is value shoving here hoping to get paid off imo with trips or better.
     
  30. I guess my problem with the hand was the play of the villain. I just basically assumed that at the early stages of the trney he would not be running elaborate CR all in bluffs on the river, and i just assumed that he must have taken a damn tricky line with a huge hand.

    To ape and andy and everybody else that says INSTCALL. What is your river calling range. Are you still calling with 1010-jj cuz it is effectively the same as AA being that he either has bluff or monster and is prolly not value shoving worse paired hands
