AA against BB getting wild - Page 2

there needs to be polls of how these hands turn out
i would win

he had KQ :D

standard pot control with no reads/thinking
shoo'ed by minraise, whatever

the better play imo is to bet the turn and then fold if he puts in a raise that you respect

then river you can check it from position

You're giving the guy an opportunity to make a play on you though. Since you can't call reraise. Whereas by checking the turn you can flat call any river bet he makes. Earn yourself a cheap showdown with AA on an uncomfortable board against an uncomfortable player. I really like the way this was played out, no need to take risks but still getting a showdown with what's likely the best hand.

Betting the turn is also okay but I prefer the check. It induces a bluff too the guy will fire most likely any river doesn't matter what card comes. In cash value the hand will come down to about the same profit, whether you bet turn into check river or check turn into call river. The only difference is that you are possibly giving him a free card. Which I find less relevant in this case than the risk to lose the whole hand on turn without a showdown.

First of all raise more pf

Secondly i think c/c river and bet/fold turn are both viable as nazgul said. it really depends on the player and how much he'll bluff and how much he'll call with marginal hands. If he's a passive fishy guy then u have to bet the turn. But if he's a retarded semi-aggressive player(which he seems to be based on the flop action), then check/calling the river is probably best.

His .50 cent flop bet sorta throw you off a bit... hard to imagine what hand he would do that with, then make a min raise and then go on to check turn... lol. Im guessing hes either a complete moron that missed a flush draw, or the turn improved his hand alot in which case he is still a moron to check it.

QQ, AK.

Mya, FroZ, in fact I was going to open with my standard 4 BB here, but was being too hasty with my mad APM so it only went in as 3. And I'm sure the hand would've played out roughly the same (postflop bets bigger although relatively the same).

Oh and I don't think anyone has guessed his hand right yet ^^

AdTd or J2o ;D cause Jack deuce always raise

QJ?

Nobody still hasn't guessed it. Hint: I lost.

26s

well the first time i looked at the hand in my head i assumed that if you lost he had AK

he had Th Js

j10

As said, nobody has yet gotten it right.

Here's another hint:
His unorthodox play for this type of hand made it hard to pinpoint. Furthermore, TURN card didn't help him.

89s !

Hm.. he just called preflop... then bets .50 into a pot of almost $5. Then doesn't hesitate to re-reraise you after you raise. Checks the turn, maybe fearing AK, maybe looking for a checkraise. Solid bet on the turn...

I'm guessing TT?
