Shitty spot vs pooruser 200 BB's deep

    Default Shitty spot vs pooruser 200 BB's deep

    Origianl raiser is a loosish fish.

    PoorUser is playing quite loose preflop, but playing very tight solid pre, c/f some flops and rarely getting out of line. He is checking behind a lot in position with both pairs and draws. I did see him triple barrel bluff another dude earlier but that's basically the only hand he got out of line (doubt it's relevant anyway).

    My image is tightish, he probably views me as a light 3-bettor. I'm guessing he perceives my lead here pretty strong.

    I think a very likely hand for him in this spot is Adxd, so I don't mind playing the flop a bit slow to see a good turn. (That being said, we're pretty far ahead of this hand even and I'm not looking to fold this at any point, so 3-betting flop given we're oop can't be bad)

    As played, I'm c/bombing this turn, since I'm not really looking to fold my hand here at any point.

    If I call the flop tbh im probably just flatting the turn. I think i'd rather not get too tricky here and i threebet the flop.

    Such an ugly flop for bottom set. I usually 3bet the flop, but after stoving it you're def behind his shoving range. I guess I like your line and c/calling the turn. C/bombing protects against scare cards, but only better hands call.

    Yah but he can have Adxd, or a hand like 54, or 5d4d or something like that, so any A, 6, 4 or diamond is a 'scare card'. So I'd rather just ship it in here than worry about folding to scare cards on river etc, when there are too many to choose form.

    Would we be calling down with a set of 3's or 5's as well?

    also i'd like to note that he was squeezing and 3-betting a lot

    flat call the turn, check raise the river, this guy has KK or AA or AK suited if hes playing it this hard. If he shows up with an overset on the river...thats poker. I base this opinion on your observations of the villains playstyle
