nl200 Flip for 1k?

[Genitruc]

My image is crazy (45/26ish).

Thoughts here? Villain seems ordinary, I've raised him off a couple pots in past few orbits...

I think he folds often enough (even though it's not very often) to make this play profitable considering your odds of showing down a winner anyway. It's basically high variance +EV. You asked for it with your image anyway. You came to gamble, so gamble.

[Irisheyes]

just c/c the flop. I don't like 3betting the flop this deep.

[Harry]

I think you are too deep to be doing this. Play some poker.

[Rondavu]

A agree with these guys.

[Miffed22001]

i like this. GAMBooooooooooooooL

I think a sick line would be call the flop and c/r the turn all in regardless of the card. If you're really being that loose he's not gonna give you credit if you hit a hand anyway.

i would rather make it like 200

I just realized this sorta sounds like an oxymoron, but I'd just like to clarify. If a diamond comes and you c/r all in he's not going to give u any credit. But if a diamond doesn't he'll probably give u credit.

??? Not sure I understand this.

Felt 100% certain villain had a big pair here. I couldn't see a spot where waiting to get it in on the turn or river could help me to get either

-paid off when I hit
-fold out his hand when I miss

If I'm in position I'm not too worried and just raise it.

I've thought about this spot a lot and can't find a spot I like after either 3-betting the flop or flat-calling. Just figured wtf let's see if this guy can fold a pair, if not, oh well I'm ahead...

I can see the merit of gabe's raise to 200 (then shove any turn or call a 4-bet shove on flop) but I feel like it allows him to play his hand too correctly since I think it unlikely he'll fold to anything but a shove.

And since there's almost 1/2 a buyin in the pot I figured shoving was fine.

Still not sure about this hand.

1 follow-up question :

If you are villain and you have AA what do you do in this spot (considering my image is very laggy)? How about KK/QQ?

[IowaSkinsFan]

I probably convince myself to call if I have AA because I tell myself "this guy is so aggro," but then again, If I really sat down and thought about it and realized your a thinking played I'd fold.

My post about the turn is I think if a diamond hits opp is going to extend your range to Adx, but if a diamond doesn't hit opp may say to himself "wtf! this guy must have something because I'm pretty much pot committed."

[Harry]

If I'm villain here I'm calling your all in with AA and probably KK.
