I am lost...

Results 1 to 8 of 8

    Default I am lost...

    No solid reads...he is 42/30/2.5 after 50 hands.

    How often would this type of player be triple barreling with air?
    I think the turn is questionable as well...

    Pre-flop could be a fold too, but I am in position with a luke-warm hand against someone that plays too many hands...

    Thoughts?

    i like 3betting preflop kinda better than calling

    as played i think i raise flop here or if i dont im definitely calling every street.

    river is close, id prolly call against this guy but im a station- i think u r good here about a third of the time

    Re-raise flop. As played, I think you're beat and villain is extracting value with an overpair.

    Standard play would be to fold

    OR

    I would push the river as a bluff. I think he has an overpair type hand which he now has to fold with the flush on the board plus possible straights. He *could* have the flush but I would take that chance in this spot.

    I like three betting preflop better than calling however as played I'd raise the flop for sure to find out where you're at. If he does have an overpair he'll let you know by shoving over you and it'll save you some money down the road. And you could always push him out of the pot with the likely marginal holding that he has.

    i call preflop way more than I raise

    I raise the flop a lot here and look to outthink villain in a marginal spot if he fights back at me.

    I'd prob call this river about 75% of the time.
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?
