1. K so I just got moved to this table, 2nd hand here.

    My thoughts: First off I hate my flat pre, I think a 3 bet to iso against short stack raising is the optimal play now that I look back at it.

    Post flop thoughts: when I check raise flop and bb cold flats my 3bet(which is fckin sick) I put him on 2 hands, a f draw(which is beyond terrible cold flatting my 3 bet on flop) or a set, both of which own me on the turn.........thoughts?

  2. any info on the Villain??
  3. Not folding
  4. Gotta be a flush or like A6, I'm gonna guess A6.
  5. I agree on 3bet pre instead of flat in sb. I also agree that you aren't beating much on the turn, and probably have to fold here.

    Sick spot tho...I just don't see us beating much considering how he played.

    PS: Congrats on the $33 FT from the other night...though you did knock me out at said FT :(
  6. no reads on villain, 2nd hand at table

  7. I'm also not a huge fan of flatting preflop, but I hate c/r'ing the flop more.

    Alarm bells are ringing as soon as the BB cold calls your c/r. The turn improves your hand, but the only hand he shows up with that you're beating here is a worse two pair--unless he's retarded.

    Looks like sets to me and you don't have a redraw. I'd just fold the turn, but don't c/r the flop IMO.

    EDIT: I guess the villian might shove sets on the flop, but if he knows you aren't c/r w/ FD's, he can flat and shove the turn. Either way I think you're beat..
  8. A set is def a possibility, I have a really hard time folding here tho. He could easily be playing like he has the flush after you check and doesnt really have it, I see this a lot and I'm sure you do too, Jean. I'm much worried about a set here, than a flush, 33 and 66 make a lot of sense. I'm kinda surprised he didnt shoved the flop with those tho, I think a lot of times he pops up with Ac here and some other random card.

    Im curious to see if you guys think it would make it more of a call/fold here depending on if this guy is a winning/losing player. For some reason, I can't think right now which way that would lean my decision on this hand.
  9. wheres villain from and how fast did he shove?

    Avg. player is not folding to a c/r on that flop Ac-x, it's just too pretty looking for the runner-runner draw

  12. All that said, I know that in this thread, I say folding is probably correct, but I know real time I probably make that call more often than not.

    But I think the real mistake is in just flatting pre....if you 3bet, you do narrow their ranges considerably, and it makes the rest of the hand play out a lot easier.

    So it's profitable to c/r that flop if his range is Acx and... what else?

    Most/all of the other hands he continue with have us CRUSHED or are FD's.

    EDIT: Sorry, I'm sure it will be profitable to c/r a standard c-bet here, but when he continues, we're pretty much always losing, so we should be c/r'ing with hands that are bluffs.
  14. From my experience the play in the 33 freeze's on stars is just horrible. I'm never folding here. His line looks alot like AK/AQ. I've even seen guys do this crap with KK/QQ in these spots.

    Personally, I lead out on flop, but I can c y Jean did c/r. All, I was saying was that villian is not folding the Ac-x on a c/r on this flop
  18. wow it got this far and noone said fold (or 3b/c) pre... this is saddening

    I would say good fold sir
     
  24. Yo Jean, I call here without a doubt, just out of curiosity how long did he take to call the check raise on the flop?
  25. 1. call

    2. fade a club on the river

    3. profit

  26. one of my fastest snap calls of the year probably
  27. i call as well. i think you (and other posters) are giving a random $33 player way too much credit.

    while you occasionally run into flushes or sets here, i think it is more likely TP w FD type hands.

    if it was a $330, i would think about folding.
  28. I just read the whole post, and was trying to decide whether a 3b(/c obv) or just folding is best.

    And i realised, i have no idea, beacuse i dont know the table/images.

    his stack is an akward 25bbs. He shouldnt be opening too light from MP, but, this is a 33 fo on stars.

    lol me too, why are u considering this after this turn peels off. Don't raise the flop if your folding this turn their range is far bigger than just flushes and sets which your putting him on when you fold. Im a station tho.
  30. I think your c/r on the flop is fundamentally wrong is counter productive to what are you are trying to achieve.

    As played, I do not see how you can fold the turn.
