After that, wow! again!!
"tight player" isn't enough to justify this fold.
Not folding this in a million years as played...........
What were your thoughts on each street?
You say he's tight.
Unlikely then that he's raising Ace rag suited.
That leaves AK and 8's or 7's
If he's got one of those hands, good luck to him.
Call
He's super tight, like nut peddler tight.
I don't think he's every doing this with a hand i beat. The only possible hand he could have is Ace d Ace x which i'm ahead of.
I don't think he would play Ad Ace x like this tho.
He said in the box he had the nut flush, would make sense he was slow playing it. Could be wrong, but felt like an easyish fold against this player.
If they ever do another "request my play" section on the TV ill request this hand.
Couldn't have asked for a much better flop!
I lead out to build value and also to protect my hand.
Or could have went for a check raise.
My turn bet is really bad. I should have bet much bigger.
When he raises me for most of his stack, just feel that he can't ever be doing this with a hand i beat.
Bit dramatic in 1st post, soz.
Thought he'd 3b pre flop so he couldn't possibly have a full house and can only beat us with 1 hand, AK of diamonds.
Still think he raises sets on the flop though, 2pairs too, if he even has any of those hands in his pf raising range.
Maybe you can still narrow him right down to the AK or AT of diamonds only.
Fun games @ nl10
I think the fold here is the correct descion, you flop as well as you could have expected.
also your bet sizing I would say is fine, the turn card is such a horrid card for your hand, or is it, probably saved you.
If as you say is super tight, what hands is he raising with pre an over pair to the board, with a diamond ?
AK, A10 d,77,88,99.
For you to lock up the hand u have to hit the 10d, so when he re raises your turn bet,i would think u have to put , your opponent on 1 of the hands that are crushing you at present.so come the river he,s looking to get the rest of his chips in.
as your first to act ,you cant check the river as then your basically giving him the hand.so the fold is imo is the correct descion, if aginst a more inventive player then its a call,then check call river.
so when u think ur behind with only 1 out of increasing your hand value ,it has to be a fold.
im not as good a playe or well disciplined as I should be, I would have shoved the turn re-raise and lost the lot lol
hope this helps
Leon i just posted it to see other peoples views.
One the of the biggest folds i've ever made, i think it's a good fold, but there's always that element of doubt.
This is one of the 3 or 4 players i'd fold this against.
Opponent said he had the nut flush in the chatbox, which would make sense he's slow played it, and got scared with the board pairing.
Something i'm playing with is leading out sometimes with a wide range of hands and strengths, good hands/ bad hands.
It works really well.
Sometimes i'll check raise as well, just always keeping it different, makes it a lot harder for players to put you on a hand.
But it makes sense as well, that its a scare card for the nut flush and he has decided he just wants to get it in. And he's prob never putting me on a FH.
