kq kinda turkey 50nl - Two Plus Two Poker Forum

Not my hand but interesting hand...If no one thinks so then sorry for spamming.

Pretty sure im looking him up here...

I'm no cash player but BB could have a set/2 pair and may be mixing it up to look like a tard. (He does have good stats, doesn't he?)

Having said that, you dont really need to mix it up to this degree at 50NL (do you?)

So, I'd make a curious call here, which is probably what he is banking on.

Fold. If you want reasoning ask.

i am folding here..... can't call with just top pair. He got a Set probably 888.

lev1athan · 18th November 2008, 08:19 PM

pocket 6's or 2's for me; anything else that he could have hit he usually folds pre or reraises methinks.

There are a ton of combo draws and 8's we beat here...And this is a fucked up line to take, feels kinda bluffy.

OK scrote, Why fold?

I just wrote out an essay and decided not to post it, lol.

I am thinking, this is really not that of a crazy line from villain. The flop has come very dry (low action flop) and he has bet out to either steal the pot there and then or to induce a raise. Now villain has called OOP on an 862 flop. I think alarm bells should be going here.

He has bet out on the turn, this line is kinda weird but now we have caught a king. He is not value betting with any worse than a King I am afraid so either you have the same hand or he has flopped a settage.

Anyhow, I call the turn and hope for a cheap showdown as I am In position but fold the river. He's just not bluffing often enough to warrant a call here.

Thanks

Much better than my "fuck it, he must be at it" line.

JOOI, if his stats showed him to be a losing maniac, would you still fold for the same reason?

If hes a losing maniac I can't find a fold out of this. Maniacs don't know why they are betting sometimes so you make no reasonings and just call depending on whether you think your hand is any good.
