    Default Did this guy miss a value bet?

    I have been doing very well at this table in the few orbits i have been sitting down. He has been very quiet at this table since i sat down. I don't think we've ever played a crazy hand with each other before.

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

    CO ($314.05)
    Button ($200)
    SB ($215.20)
    Hero ($374.80)
    UTG ($179.20)
    MP ($388.90)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with A, A.
    2 folds, CO raises to $8, 2 folds, Hero raises to $30, CO calls $22.

    Flop: ($61) 9, 4, J (2 players)
    Hero bets $38, CO raises to $94, Hero calls $56.

    Turn: ($249) 9 (2 players)
    Hero checks, CO checks.

    River: ($249) 9 (2 players)
    Hero checks,
    GrinderX said, "hmMMMMMMMMMMMmmm"
    GrinderX said, "value or not"
    GrinderX said, "qq?"
    CO checks.

    Final Pot: $249

    Results in white below:
    Hero has Ac As (full house, nines full of aces).
    CO has Kd Ks (full house, nines full of kings).
    Outcome: Hero wins $249.





    If he knew i were capable of slowplaying on the river, would his line be good? I was impressed at first but it seems pretty nitty.

    if anything, he has to fold all worse hands except maybe KK to your flop shove and there aren t lots of draws in his range of preflop calling hands

    so I like your line but I only like his line if he knows you re thinking this deep
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    since you made your c-bet on the small side and got him to do what you presumably wanted, just shove over right there. If you whiffed your turn c/r then you need to fire the river as played.

    You should have said in the chat "I CALL I CALL JUST BET I CALL BIND ME"

    I think I would just push turn or river in this hand btw.

    lol, at least u didnt check the AA behind.
    seriously though he shouldve bet something on the river. but if that's ur read, that he's a nit, u could just lead the turn and river.

    It is an interesting hand, so i thought about it more...

    Because the majority of both of our ranges by the river are pretty much J-J/K-K+, i think his check behind on the river is actually really good... i know i would have bet in his position in the actual hand for sure. The most likely way i am going to get him to potentially make a mistake here is by betting the river - even if he is folding to a river bet 80% of the time it's probably better to just put him all in.

    So i guess my best line to just shove on the flop? At least then there's a greater chance i am bluffing or pushing a draw?
