    losing to 1 card only... i dont even know why you've checked unless you were intending to trap in which case I don't know why this hand is posted since you got what you wanted.. Alot of people could be doing this with any Ax thinking they have the nuts.

    always bet your hands, whether youve flopped a monster or flopped a bag of spanners. stops people getting reads and builds the pot. plus if they have something they will come along anyway, if not its unlikely they will improve enough on the turn to continue in the hand even with you giving them a free card. hard to see what he would be jamming here other than the 6, theres only 1 ace left out there and why would he overbet jam like this, hes never going to be called by a hand he beats. grim spot. i assume you posted this because you called and he had the 6 in which case ul. but its definately a blubbering fold for me.

    pre is good

    bet flop

    bet turn bigger

    bet river

    snap river shove
  • edited June 2011
    No you cant fold in this spot ever, worse FH will still shove likely

    pre= Fine
    Flop= i dont think a check is bad here, sometimes i would bet it though
    turn= i'd bet more £7.50 or £8
    river= i would not check because you havent built the pot, bet 50-75% pot for value and snap and shove

    As nitty as i can be, i can never ever fold this hand. It has got to be the winning hand most of the time so it has to be a +ve call does'nt it?


    Cant be results orientated, its got to be good more than 50% of the time.

    not really.

    only 1 ace left in the deck and only 1 six left in the deck.

    personally I'd never fold I don't know how you did it Bendog! 

    I know the villain sometimes posts on the forums so hopefully he can come along and help us out!

    Bet every street and never fold.

    how is it ever good though really. surely he checks any other pp behind as he has showdown value. i actually think he has a 6 here. like scotty says same chance of him having a 6 in this hand as him having an ace. i just think if he has an ace the hand plays out differently, unless villain is always this passive with tp on a relatively dry board.

    played out like he has the 6, check flop with a pair, just flat when you catch trips, shove for value on the river hoping your opponent has an ace.

    over time a 'good reg' will never be making this play with anything other than a 6 in his hand. im certain he wouldnt jam with an ace, silly imo. and its doubtful hes bluffing here because of the way the hand played out, he hasnt set him up to bluff him, and its not a great board to attempt a bluff on. could be wrong though obv. bendog is going to have to be right making this call such a large % of the time for it to be a profitable long term.

    FML why would u ever check the river. If your checking to induce a bluff from missed flush draws, you have to call. I think a good reg is defo capable of shoving a missed flush draw, it doesnt look like anyone else has got anything, so good spot to take the pot. 

    Also Hurst, why would jamming an ace be silly? First off, if you got an ace, chances of someone have AA is so unlikey, and even more unlikely when its been checked to you, nobody should ever be checking AA on the river :S . If they suspect that you could be doing it with missed flush draws, you might get heroed by worse fullhouses. 

    and a 6 reraises the turn some of the time.

    edit: actually thinking about it, jamming an ace isnt the best. Nothing can call that you beat. A normal bet is the better option
  • edited June 2011
    lol at folding

    if villain is good reg he raises 6 on turn a decent % of time

    there are more As than 6s in his range

    he likes to bluff scare cards, and no one has shown any strength

    people will  sometimes call with worse boats than an A, so he can bet Ax for value, also some players mught fold the split (not many though)
  • edited June 2011
    hen i first skimmed this HH I thought that the villain open shoved

    now that i've read it properly and you checked river you can never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever fold
  • edited June 2011

    i think you need to bet the river.  if he shoves over your river raise then the decision is a lot easier.  i think you played it fine until the river and it looks like you have been ridiculously unlucky.

    if you check then i think you have to call.

  • edited June 2011

    just noticed there are 3 players on the river so if he has just an ace it is unlikely to be scooping the whole pot...a good reg will know this which imo makes it a smaller part of their range

    Hey Mr dog i had AJ the second best hand after 7-2 off obv

    good point on the missed flush draw and shoving, but bendog (and i dont think he would mind me saying) is a tight player, he is never going to be hero calling with anything worse (which is proved cause he folded AAA66 in this spot). so if the villain was thinking like this hes not exactly taken his opponent into consideration. 

    having said that there is an argument for him having busted draw that i overlooked, villain knows bendog is a tight player and is attempting to exploit him.

    i dont think this is necessarily true with the massive value being offered preflop, calling with hands such as 56/67 are more likely to be profitable in this spot preflop than the majority of the hands that have an A in them.
  • edited June 2011
    When you described the villain as a "good reg" I didn't expect it to be Ozzie08 - bad read imo 
  • edited June 2011
    I find it hard to believe a good reg would overjam AJ here

    Agree to that statement, but we are talking about Ozzie08 now so scrap the "good reg" part innit 
  • edited June 2011
    yh i edited my post. Thinking about it, shoving an ace is pretty bad play, esp vs a tight player whos never calling with worse.

  • edited June 2011
    No offence to Ozzie, I hope it's a level and he really did have a 6 but it's bad.

    If I actually respected the player then I would fold, because without looking back at the hh we have to be right 40-50% of the time and I think the way the hand plays out he has a 6 way more than he has an Ace.
  • edited June 2011
    I'd shove Ax here v Bendawggggg or anyone else...Because I dare do it as a bluff :P

    BRING IT ON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    lets ear it ;).......
  • edited June 2011
    I'm also freerolling for a split.

    :D
  • edited June 2011
    how is it bad to shove Ax here if you all want to fold anything other than a 6?

    Personally I think he can value bet, dont know can he shove, people love to herocall stuff like 88 here and no one ever has a 6
