    Default 33s: Blind defense

    This guy had c-bet every time he raised. He was capable of folding after a reraise, however.

    It was simply not credible to me that this flop helped him, and, personally, I think if he has ANY pocket pair, he pushes after my reraise.
    so I put him on overs, and the turn is either my miracle card or my worst nightmare. How often do you call this reraise with A-high for 1/6th of your stack?

    I must make some kind of bet on the turn, but how much? I sorta wanna get paid, on the other hand, is it possible to fold this if he pushes?

    Do you regularly call minbets in the Blinds with junk.

    As played tho your raise is fine given your read. I wouldnt worry about the flush draw since its HU.

    3-handed with almost 30bb, this is a standard preflop call with 27o

    think I jumped the gun there, was more hungover earlier.

    As a hand on its own i dont like it but if thats the way villian is playing with minbets everywhere then of course you gotta adjust and call with any 2.

    I like your line. He can't put you on a straight after your raise.

    Sure it is possible, there is a fold button.

    But would you be able to press it? I don't think I could. He could push with a 5.

    yeah it would be almpost impossible for me to fold this..Im probably betting around 1/2 the pot here and calling if he pushes

    don't even think about folding

    I was wondering what he could be calling with here other than two diamonds...how many of you call this flop reraise with, say, AJ no diamonds?

    I suppose there are a lot of people who do not read FTP and would not push the flop with an overpair, which I would probably do...

    that said, I doubt I could have ever folded this.
