100NL and below overbet situations

PWN THE N00BS

Hand 1:
Hero:Ax hearts Preflop: whatever
Flop: Kh Qh Tc Action: whatever
Turn: Js Hero: (sees a bunch of N00BS) ALL IN

Hand 2:
Hero: 25 of diamonds in the BB. 3-4 way limped pot
Flop : QJ6 all diamonds. Action: N00B bets $2, Hero raises to $25.
If N00B calls, push non diamond/non board-pairing turn.
(Theory: a noob will never lead out with a flopped flush in first position; a noob thinks overbets are bluffs)

Hand 3:
Hero: KQ, lots of N00BS in the pot.
Flop: JT8 Action: whatever
Turn or River: 9 /x or 7/A.....Hero: ALL IN
(Just one example of many nut straights that should be overbet)


Discuss....and add more overbet situations because these are highly profitable!

I would add any full house bet on the river that almost looks like a bluff is profitable; trips with King or Ace kicker.a flush,a straight flush or quads,as well as a set that lands at the perfect time.

Fnord, I like that line in situations like that. You are essentially playing with your cards turned face-up on the table, but there seems to be enough horrible players out there to make that play profitable...

What's your read to pull this move? Villain has to be laggy and just forced to lay down a hand or two to a big bet on a scary turn river? or do you pull this at random against weak loose players? How do you think this compares to a smaller overbet of say 13 or 14 or even an underbet looking to get the villian to pull the trigger.

read=noob

well, hand one works against even moderately good players who don't think...
