    Default How good or bad is this?

    This hand occurred at a 6-max table but was HU. The guy i'm playing is a 600NL 6-max reg and i'm just hoping the table is going to fill up with donks but it hasn't. So this match has gone one like 40 hands or so.

    He's been playing tightish and straight forward, he doesn't seem to like to play oop very much and has been 3-betting a good amount. It's likely that he 3-bets any pp sometimes, JJ and TT are definitely not possibilities neither is J3, J4, and if he has 43 it's suited and i don't know if he plays that either. I've been raising my button almost every hand and he definitely see's me as aggressive. I've almost been taking down a lot more hands than him. I've also rarely (if ever) checked behind flops and when i have i haven't taken a strong line or showndown anything decent (really we haven't showndown much at all).

    Also his retarded bet-sizing with cents is normal. He must have some AHK script that does it.

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $6 BB (2 handed) Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Hero ($897.80)
    BB ($606)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with 7, 6.
    Hero raises to $21, BB calls $12.

    Flop: ($39) 4, J, T (2 players)
    BB checks, Hero checks.

    Turn: ($39) 3 (2 players)
    BB bets $25.55, Hero raises to $70, BB raises to $230.85, Hero raises to $949.8 (All-In) (villain has about 360 behind)

    personally i dont like it, what hand are you represening by checking behind on the flop and then shipping the turn? - JJ?. Villain has put in nearly half his stack and i doubt he is laying down any J or better - hard to say though, dont play much heads up

    i dont like it even though its good isf theorem. Just doesn't seem like a spot or a scenario you'd see a lot of bluffs and his raise size doesnt exactly scream he wants to fold.

    What are you representing? I don't like it. And it doesn't seem like you have fold equity.
    The secret to success in poker is to rig the odds in your favor.

    yeah i thought it was pretty bad for the reasons above. Although when you make a play like this is it almost doesn't matter how it doesn't make much sense cause it's a spot where unless my opponent is on the same level as me, he's not going to think i'm bluffing.

    I think the main problem with it is he's not bluffing much either nor is folding any of his made range.
