Pretty Deeeeep on River

    Default Pretty Deeeeep on River

    Villain pretty laggy and spewy and bad, doesn't like to fold when taking passive lines. His preflop raise - bad as it may seem - makes me think he has a huge hand oop.

    I am down 2 buyins after he guttered my 2 pair on river and ran AQ through AK. I don't think he's very meta-game conscious. I built my stack back up by taking lots of money from a fish and 2-barelling a 3-bet pot vs him a few minutes back.

    Fwiw I considered shoving turn.

    Table "Bromwich" Seat 1 is the button.
    Seat 1: HERO ($1139.84 in chips)
    Seat 5: VILLAIN ($1495.84 in chips)
    Seat 10: Il_losery sits out
    HERO: posts small blind $2
    VILLAIN: posts big blind $5
    ----- HOLE CARDS -----
    dealt to HERO
    HERO: raises to $17
    VILLAIN: raises to $49
    HERO: calls $32
    ----- FLOP -----
    VILLAIN: bets $76
    HERO: calls $76
    ----- TURN -----
    VILLAIN: bets $195
    HERO: calls $195
    ----- RIVER -----
    VILLAIN: bets $380
    HERO: raises to $819.84 and is all-in

    Just for fun, if you're villain and you have no reason to think I'm loopy, what's your calling range to the river shvoe?
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    hmmm... I'd be pretty confused at what you had.

    I guess the hands that make sense here are like T8s, TT, and QcJc. I'm not even sure if T8 would necessarily bomb this river, so I feel like that mostly leaves you with two likely hands that would call down (and not raise earlier) and raise river.

    I feel like I'd call here with most overpairs for sure, and two pair getting like 4:1 or something. I don't think many better hands are folding anyhow, so I'd prefer to just flat this river if anything as I think his range is pretty polarized. I think the worse of his value range like JJ or what not might even feel inclined to check this river.

    pkpppp? whats good is he can laydown AA here cuz he's exploitable that way

    whats bad is that his range is insanely strong in 3bet pots despite his laggyness
    Nine to five is how to survive - I ain't trying to survive / I'm trying to live it to the limit and love it a lot //

    Can offer RB deals on most sites, PM me.

    I'd be so afraid of TT here if I were him.
