my pre flop play is fine with 88. AsJd3s on the flop i get one checker, i then bet strong thinking the majority of the time this flop is good for a pre flop raiser and the player in poss folds and x calls. I now think he has jx or QK or XXss.6c then comes out i fire out again hard to prevent him from chasing or playing 2nd pair. My set comes on the river and i decide to shove as he's calling anything anyway..
am i putting too much thought into this as its the opening hand and have 0 reads
His play is appalling. Would have been a legendary call if you'd missed the 8 on the river and still jammed mind you.
this hand was completly readless so the barrel on the turn has got to be a leak, there is very little villian calls the flop with that folds the turn. these a whole load of aces and jacks in villians range. I really dont understand the turn bet, the only reasonable hands your betting for value against are FDs so your turning your hand into a bad bluff with a bet on the turn, check-fold turn IMO.
as played obviously jam river.
Flop: I think you can go either way on the flop, check/fold or c-bet, It's close dosnt matter too much.
I understand your playing aggresive and trying to fold out Jacks on the turn, I just dont think turning your hand into a bluff is +EV in this spot. Villian has more aces than jacks in his range for a start, the very fact that you got floated on the flop should set alarm bells ringing in your head, you c-bet flop into two players and got called, that gives you loads of infomation, mostly its telling you, you are beat. Basicly you are beating a very small part of his range, mostly FDs and even rarer pairs smaller than yours and complete air, you should discount air and assume hes not that capable. The turn changes nothing and barreling into mosly aces and jacks is -EV simply 'cause you are getting called way to much. Check/fold to most turn bets, unless he bets small and weak looking IMO. If he does have a FD or some small pair alot of the time he checks back so you get to the river with the best hand anyway. If he does bluff you on the turn so be it, he has position and the right to do so, wp to him.
put simply betting the turn mostly only gets called by better.
You got lucky on the river well that's poker
The mistake is not shutting down when you get the information back from him- he has a hand when he calls you, and it's almost always an ace, and you can gain from his play that he's probably a weak player, with a weak kicker, who won't fold. With that in mind, you can't make him fold with a bet, and you're behind when you bet, so betting is a mistake. Forget the fact you hit, he gave you the free card to take on the turn- take it! Only time you bet there is if you beat most of the aces out there- so if you have AK/AQ, A10 even or any 2 pair combo/set, that's the time to bet the turn, and probably get paid.
No need to really worry too much about mixing up your play with unknowns, because they're just not going to be seeing patterns in what you do. Try and bet when you're ahead, check when you're behind- they tend to give off plenty of info that gives that away.
