I have a couple questions:

1. How balanced is your PF range out of the blinds? I.E. are you opening hands like sc's/small pps from time to time to balance an otherwise strong range?

2. What's your image and perception of the BTN?

AK or KQ

KJs+, KQo+

AJ, KK. I call.

Revised:

KK, AJ, KJ+

KK, probably air though. If you wanted to try and rep AK you should've bet pot on the river.

I wouldn't try and bluff someone who would play a hand like this.

Actually nvm i just think you're always bluffing

1. I might be going after limpers with a very wide range. I hate to play sc's oop though, and in this spot I'm probably opening with any two broadway and all pairs. UTG seemed bad and I wanted to isolate.

2. BTN is unknown but I hate his play here. His flop play is simply ridiculous. I don't mind his river call, although he might just have been thinking "I don't know what villain has and I have two pair so I call".

i thought that you, being a good, tight player would not try to bluff a donk so therefore u have to have a made hand better than K8 which is consistent with ur line- all i came up with was 222 kkk

Very well done sauce, I had 22. Thanks for the respect

Edit: I'm dumb

I have no place in this forum, but i'd just assume somebody that limp/called PF from the button, then bet $10 into a $175 pot when checked to was a retard.

The question was guess what you think he has not what you would have.

Sauce, anyone else that ruled out JQ, can i ask why? Does a good player always lead flop, or C/R in that spot because of the club draw? Probably bets more on turn as well?

I haven't read the replies yet so not sure if you said your hand yet.

But based on turn and river it seems like QJ. I think it would probably have to be QJ suited for you to raise out of blinds. BUT flop rules out QJ I think cause I doubt you'd check and flat call on such a drawy board where so many cards can kill your action on the turn.

I can see KQ/AK firing the turn out and river, but I feel like the river overbet is almost turning your hand into a bluff with just tptk on this kinda board.

Maybe some low/mid pair tryin to rep the K on the turn and keep repping on the river. I can see 77 going crazy like this on turn/river when the draw didn't come in. 22 would be sick.. but I think thats possible as well.

99.9% of the time multiway with QJ on that board we want to cbet or c/r.

Doesn't that go for KK as well?

Ok, so does it mean that you think I misplayed my deuces?
