    Default Semi-bluff the turn

    Dealing with overly aggressive players in the blinds is fairly common problem.
    What do you think of this hand...Once he didn't push over the minraise on the flop, I knew I could win this hand. Do you think there's any chance he actually laid down a king here?

    Seat 1: UncleBuddy1 ($3,335 in chips)
    Seat 4: Bud 540 ($790 in chips)
    Seat 5: topmonkey ($1,505 in chips)
    Seat 6: baudib [9H,6H] ($1,295 in chips)
    Seat 7: jefson35 ($815 in chips)
    Seat 8: huescfnum19 ($7,260 in chips)



    ANTES/BLINDS
    topmonkey posts blind ($25), baudib posts blind ($50).

    PRE-FLOP
    jefson35 folds, huescfnum19 folds, UncleBuddy1 folds, Bud 540 folds, topmonkey bets $80, baudib calls $55.

    FLOP [board cards 3S,6D,KH ]
    topmonkey bets $50, baudib bets $100, topmonkey calls $50.

    TURN [board cards 3S,6D,KH,4H ]
    topmonkey checks, baudib bets $400, topmonkey folds.

    SHOWDOWN
    baudib wins $810.



    SUMMARY
    Dealer: Bud 540
    Pot: $810
    UncleBuddy1, loses $0
    Bud 540, loses $0
    topmonkey, loses $205
    baudib, bets $605, collects $810, net $205

    I would raise more on the flop, minraises are automatic call for a lot of players

    wp! He might have had a legit blind v blind raising hand (maybe A-rag). As TLR says, the min-raise probably kept him in, fishing for his A, but it quickly became apparent he was beat and didn't fancy losing anymore in the pot.

    No. If he laid down a K here, I will chew my own arm off.

    It was either a probe bet on the flop or a very weak steal attempt. I too though would have raised more on the flop. With $250 in the pot I probably would have put in about 180-200 just in case he was on a flush draw.
    Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.
