Hand 1 looks like the classic you've top pair he has a set scenario. If you call the repot then you're commited to the hand. Depends on the villain, but sometimes i'd call sometimes i'd fold. Sounds like he's the type of player that could do this with a flush draw, so sticking it in isn't too bad.

Hand 2 bet the turn. Fold the river unless you've a reason to believe he's bluffing again.

Hand 1

- I move allin, he calls and turns over A5, no help on turn, river[ / spoiler]

Hand 1

- I fold, he shows 23o bluff. Same guy later calls my button pot raise with 88, J high flop, no draws, I decide to represent overpair or AJ/set and pot it again, he calls, turn I pot again, he calls, river I'm all-in. he's called me down with J6o. Unreal.[ / spoiler]

Hand 1:
if im not mistaken then after 5 limper you bet pot which is about 20-25.
get called making the pot about 50-60,then you pot the flop and villain pushes .
villain's push here cant be more than 70 or so considering he only had 150.
so basically you have to call around 70 to win something like 300.
nearly 3:1 i dont see how you can ever fold this specially the way you have described villain.

Hand 2:
what are you doing checking the turn?
build the pot man .
your bet on the turn would show very clearly if he is bluffing or not.
as played if he has an A you are choping the pot and pretty much any other hand he may have your losing to it so i think its safe to fold.

A10, AJ, AQ all have you beat in the hand as well as any King. I would fold.

Hand 2

I don't fold this so easily. This is an opponent who likes his bluffs. You showed weakness on the turn, the only reason I can think of for checking is to induce a bluff on the river.

His bet on the river makes little sense. He almost never makes this bet without a King at least and he is unlikely to have called the flop bet with just a king (I'm assuming he wont have AK). I would call

Was this from the SE on Fri night? If so are you on about the guy in Seat 10 on the main table? This guy is a pure circus :eek: - i have put him on my "buddy list" :cool: - he made 2 outrageous calls against me - he got lucky on one and I got lucky on the other - but he should have called neither of them. I would follow this guy around - I want his cash!!!!!

Hand one I call 80-90% of the time against a player as you've described this one.

Hand two: bet the turn for fúck's sake Richie, and probably call the river too.

call 1st, fold 2nd, bet turn in 2nd.

Hand 1: push
Hand 2: pot the flop. as played call the river.

If the villain is tight then I like the check on the turn in hand 2

Hand 1: There's no reason to bet the maximum on this flop and the only reason you posted this is because you ran into A5/AT or something but you ended up getting better than 3:1 so you can't fold here.

Hand 2. I don't understand any of this hand. I bet the turn, but fold the river. I'm not calling in the hope of a split pot.

i think i was there for those hands

its not easy folding AK in the fitz but when you have to its made obvious
as I remember he checkraised to about €75 with another €100 behind (gagging to get all-in) HE wasn't a bluffer and took you for AK/AQ. The bet sizing combined with the player he was I think I could get away from it. He was one of the majority of Fitz players who never bluff.

Don't see him checkraising w/Aq. Whenever I think/feel I'm behind in the fitz (as I think you did), say I have AA on a 24Q board I will put my oponent on 24 or Q2s, as in this case where a set would be a little much and AT still a little respectable, I put him on A5.

in hand two that player's not checking aces up on the turn and even super aggressive oponents usualy under bet the pot on the river after a checked turn with a monster. If I check the turn I pay off the river no matter what.
