TPGK against a set, I guess...

Results 1 to 3 of 3
  1. #1

    Default TPGK against a set, I guess...

    Villain is 23%/6.5%/1 over 92 hands.

    Standard? Do you bet more like 1/2 pot on the turn after the smooth call? Is the river blocking bet worth it here?

    Cryptologic
    No Limit Holdem Ring game
    Blinds: $0.15/$0.25
    7 players
    Converter

    Stack sizes:
    UTG: $36.90
    UTG+1: $19.80
    MP1: $24.75
    Hero: $26
    Button: $46
    SB: $24.10
    BB: $25

    Pre-flop: (7 players) Hero is CO with Q A
    3 folds, Hero raises to $1.25, Button calls, 2 folds.

    Flop: A 2 7 ($2.9, 2 players)

    Uncalled bets: $13.25 returned to Button.

    yeah, that looks right. turn bet is fine. too many ways to be losing here, I don't commit a lot more chips at the end.

    Could be one of three things:

    1) a set
    2) A9 (probably SUITED, maybe even clubs) paired its kicker after hesitantly calling with a weak one
    3) A broken flushdraw pushing you off top pair because he has a note saying "Weak tight nit, can be pushed off hands easily" (just kidding). The bet says "don't call me", if he wanted TPGK to call he would have probably raised to like 10-12$. Well, anyway, I would fold without a read here.
    In order to live you have to be ready to die!
