Im friends with p3achy, and he is mainly a 6max player who started playing solme full ring after I gave him a few tips. Hes a pretty good solid player, playing like 14/11 or so and pretty decent postflop.

After I reraised and the guy called out of the blinds p3achy INSTANTLY called the reraise. I put him on a pocket pair when he did this because there wasnt much thought as to if he should reraise or fold.

When he check raised all in, I immediately thought he had 55 or JJ. I started thinking a little harder, and saw some semibluff possibilities like KQs QTs maybe Axs too. Also possible he could have AK as well, but in that case, since i dont have a spade, in 4 out of the 6 possible ways for him to have AK he is freerolling me at about 5%. I didnt think he would have AA here because of the coldcaller and I also didnt think he would be doing this with a naked flush draw or naked AQ. I reluctantly folded the hand and a lot of my friends told me they thought it was a horrible fold.

I ran some pokerstove calculations on it and they came up with the following:

Board: Ah 5s Js
Dead: As

equity (%) win (%) tie (%)
Hand 1: 24.9349 % 13.48% 11.45% { AcKh }
Hand 2: 75.0651 % 63.61% 11.45% { JJ, 55, AKs, AsQs, AJs, A5s, KsQs, QsTs, AKo }

I think that range is ok. I was getting about 2.2:1 on the shove so I think folding here is fine. I asked him later about it and he said he had AJ and "hes never calling my reraise oop again with a hand like that".

Dont think because you are a good donkament player you can come into my house and call me susie. This was mainly a timing thing. He INSTANTLY check raised me, and i figured rizen isnt the kind of guy to make a smallish check raise just to save money so i put him on a feeler raise to snap off a cbet. Well feel this out buddy!

I timebanked this one forever on the river before calling. This player really bothers me for some reason. First off his icon is irritatingly ugly, I dont even know what it is, but it looks sort of like a deformed version of that doll chucky from childs play. Secondly, his style just pisses me off. Hes ultra ultra passive (his overall AF is .88), and he usually makes these tiny bets trying to squeak out as much value as he can, like if you continuation bet and he calls, and you check the turn he will bet like 1/4 pot whether he has a monster or a weakish hand that is beating yours.

So, when he potted the river I couldnt really figure out what to do. I should have folded, but it just seemed so strange because earlier he turned a straight flush on me and bet exactly 1/2 pot into me on the river and i flatted it with top 2 pair. So when he made this move, I was really confused because he never bets strong with anything. I probably should have folded because I dont see him floating me twice, but I was skeptical about the river bet so I decided to call, plus the fact that its blind on blind with a huge hand.

Alright, Im gonna go to class, mainly out of guilt of missing my first two today. Maybe Ill post some more hands later if youre lucky, but my guess is youre not and youll end up reading retarded randomness again.
