    Long time fan and silent lurker Mrs D! .. And you being an Arsenal fan has only enhanced my opinion of your overall great bloggage!(if thats a word?)And to defend a fellow Arsenal fan for our sins. We always struggle against Man Utd and the draw was a shock the way we were playing 1st half,good result with a game in hand.Good luck at the tables. 
    Cheers Dave.

    WSDD?

    First time I've posted a hh and asked for advice, so be gentle please! :) I tend to go by feeling when I play so don't know/can't work out all the numbers etetc. This is the first time in a while I felt really unsure if I'd made the right decision and keep thinking about it now. Is it a close one? It feels/felt close!
    Three handed at a 50nl MC table, X is a fairly frequent reg who I've got tagged as a good player. He is known to re-raise pre and on any street without fear, quite regularly, and I've caught him doing it as a bluff twice.

    So...
    ~ What should Ducky do?

    ^ I am shoving there in a heartbeat :) prob heart sinks when he flips over jj or k 10cc, but loving the k river :) 

    Then again I am a mere tournament player so I will leave it to cash regs to slaughter my thinking ;)
  • edited May 2015
    Ugh I'm hating my life when I get raised here.

    As a good, creative reg I'd imagine the squeeze pre would be a fairly wide range. 

    They probably have to bet most flops then, although depends on how wide they think you call 3-bets. If they've missed completely then it may not be worth them bombing when it's quite likely to hit hands you'd call 3bets with?

    So when you call flop, oppo can rule out most suited connectors and mid-small PPs (unless you've been floating lots). Has to put you on (mostly) a range of broadway combos, many of which are likely to call the turn c/r, so if he's bluffing then it's only to push you off of any Tx straight draws of Jx one pair hands, maybe AK.

    Therefore I can't see many hands that we beat here.  And I sigh fold.  Find a cat to kick if oppo flicks over some piece of cheese or QT.

    But I'm no poker player. Just passing time on my lunch break. Look forward to reading the views of people that are, you know, quite good at poker :)

    Pretty nice spot to go to the takeaway IMO.
  • edited May 2015
    I think you are probably behind more times than you are ahead here, but if he has certain 2 club hands, and 10x hands then that is a great turn for him to check/shove on because it will be putting you in an awful spot most of the time.. against an unknown id say you are in bad shape most of the time, against a player you know is capable of making plays and bluffs then it isnt a really bad call and you arent ever going to be drawing dead. but maybe in the long run id guess you should be folding
  • edited May 2015
    I'm probably not qualified to comment on the hand itself, but I would say that this hand would have played out much easier if you were 100bb deep rather than over 200. My advice would be to play regular tables rather than mastercash as you will find these decisions will not crop up as much. 

    Also tend to find these tables usually contain at least one or two of the nightmare regs at each stake as they know they can own average players like me due to playing deeper. I would say avoid unless the table looks really good 

    Good luck at the (normal) tables!

    hi ducky so sorry for donking u at the weakend i was tilting only reason i was there was to bust that fool sitting to your left he got me a chat ban and the weasel gave me a sutble needle when i lost a hand few hands earlier actaully thought u was going to name and shame the kitty for kicking her dirty little at u lol

    really intesting hand this one i like villians line alot what for me  the most important here is what villian thinks of u does he think u a pc type player who will xb the turn with a one pair draw combo ( with the flop play u have this about 80% of the time) or does he think u a agro type that will bet/barrel a scare card vs weakness

    if u agro type a x/r shove with aces and kings from villian  is a really nice play IMO and pritty sure will be a + ev  play

    if however villian thinks u a pc type player who takes free cards and no likes to inflate the pot unless u have a made hand it's a great x/r especailly with 9-9 j-j as he knows u got a-q k-q or to a lesser degree a slow played k-10 also he could think if he barrels it might scare alot of your marginal pair drawing hands out  being as it's a paired board this way if u have q u will bet and if u have draw he might get some value on river if he slow plays and u hit, if he has j-j u are also a lot more heavily weighted to having a q than if he had 9-9 IMO love the play with j-j there
