Another big overpair call hand

[Galapogos]

Have some stats on this guy, zero reads though, was too busy watching a classic episode of Newsradio

He is running at 44/12/7.5 over not too many hands, maybe 50 ish?

His donk bet is huge. But I've been raising a lot preflop and he can't possibly put me on a monster here. But since when does a random care about that?

this seems standard enough. I doubt he's doing that donk bet with anything you are losing to.

[sauce123]

yea

[The_Bankroll]

Yeah, I expect to see JT/J9/AT/97/A8/JQ here a lot against a guy like this, or he is doing this with complete air, or hand liek AQ/77 every once in a while.

I'm not at home but the name Rivergold is embedded in my memory as donk. Either/or it's still a call.

[IowaSkinsFan]

if i have tp or better versus a guy with those stats i pretty much never fold.

[vegascoop]

Yeah, I probably don't punish some of these idiots enough but I this is an easy one.

[Genitruc]

Fine

[zenbitz]

this is so standard, I can only imagine that you go owned by some crappy 2pair

Actually he had T7o and I held. I'm not confident in my big overpairs. So I've been posting even the most basic hands if I felt there was a chance I could have played it badly. I want to make sure all aspects of even my most basic game are 100%

fish dont bet sets, especially not on this board

watching tv while playing is usually -EV, however watching newsradio can never be a bad thing.

It was the one were Matthew grew a moustache. Classic.

nice. the best would have to be the one where Bill gives up smoking and Dave gives up coffee, or the Throwdini episode. Too hard to choose between the two.
