    1. Prob fold. Getting 2/1 makes it tempting but I think he'll have KQ a lot here, your reraise on the turn looks strong and he isn't bothered

    2. Prob call given info on villian. A bit worried that his PFR is only 2 so he could have AA or QQ here a bit. If he had played more hands and his PRF was still 2 and his TAF still 0.5 I'd fold.

    3. Fold to him betting 3 times the pot

    these are all pretty tough situations. the massive overbet is often pretty confusing.
    in hand 1 i think you should bet the flop, it's a pretty good flop for that hand. i'd probably call the reraise, crying call, you beat sets and two pairs and A7 diamonds, you can't beat KQ/Q8 and could be facing a freeroll of 8x diamonds. only two hands beat you, i'd take a deep breath and call.
    in hand 2 you say villian showed bluffs, were they all in overbets? 999, 444, 108, flush... all possible badly played hands that beat you, even 666 if he's really bad and AAA, QQQ if you're running particularly bad :) still though you beat all two pair combos and AK, KK and you say the guys a bad player. very tough, i'd probably call but i think that might be the wrong play. i'm sure someone will have some good advice for this hand but i'm not sure, it'll be intresting to see what people say about this one and what you actually did....
    hand 3 is the only hand you mentioned the player might be good so i'd probably just fold here as you're hand is not that strong. possible straights and a flush on board, just muck and move i think.

    hand 1: I call, while your splitting a bit, think he could have a set here also
    Hand 2: I call seeing as villain has bluffed a bit
    Hand 3 is a fold for me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,201 ✭✭✭Macspower


    Just to add the the villan in hand 1 later turned out to be a decent player and was a difficult LAG.... he was constantly raising and 4 betting my 3 bets........ stats after 200 hands are 35/25/3/201 but this info wasn't available to me at the time.... would it change the decision if I knew? He left the table eventually with about 350bb's

    You should wait longer before giving the results!

    Hand 1 is a definite fold, You will sometimes split and sometimes lose, sometimes freerolled. Almost never win. He will never have a set.

    Here's what happened next!!

    thanks for your comments guys

    Hand 1 I folded.. BuChan you were perfectly right he showed A8 diamonds... str8 made and freerolling on flush,

    Hand 2

    Given my read on villan and the fact that I checked to induce the bluff (just didn't expect it to be an all in) I couldn't really fold... So call it was
