88 vs competent looking reg.

Results 1 to 4 of 4

    Default 88 vs competent looking reg.

    Villain is 23/21 48ATS over 70 hands.

    Preflop: Pretty standard, plays pretty alright vs his opening range so is too strong to 3 bet bluff with and too weak to 3 bet for value.

    Flop: We don't have a whole lot of relevant history or anything so I don't want to raise to indice spazzes or anything. Calling seems standrad and like the only play again here. I plan to c/c tons of turn cards since he'll barrel a good amount I feel and I'm pretty much near the top of my range.

    Turn: Not one I expect him to barrel frequently. I almost want to fold, but this seems absurd since his range until now is so wide and I don't know what he barrels and what he doesn't here.

    River: Okay so I assume here his range is now fairly polarised between air and randoms kings, sets and 2 pairs. Price seems like he wants a call, is it okay to fold this river?

    Folding river isn´t terrible, I think you can give him credit for barreling turn on this board.

    Also, I would absolutely hate to play against p4´s under any circumstances.

    The first thing I thought when I saw the hand.

    By default I don't like to give up where I don't have to and c/c is going to suck when he has 99-QQ, KJ/KQ or even AK, although I'd expect that to go for more value on the river. I'd be amazed if villain got to the river with something strong enough that he's comfortable calling a c/r shove.
