    Default 50NL bluffcatching

    Having trouble vs. people with TP against players that seem to have wide ranges but are making me put lots of money in.


    1. Villain is 22/16/inf and 36% steal over 76 hands. Every street his agg. frequency was 70+. Should I be folding this river? Huge overbet but does this not seem like Ax (a lot beat me I know) or missed draws?

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (5 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    MP ($87.30)
    Button ($50)
    SB ($53.60)
    Hero (BB) ($52.60)
    UTG ($50)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with A, J
    3 folds, SB raises to $2, Hero calls $1.50

    Flop: ($4) 9, A, 8 (2 players)
    SB bets $3.50, Hero calls $3.50

    Turn: ($11) 4 (2 players)
    SB bets $8, Hero calls $8

    River: ($27) 3 (2 players)
    SB bets $40.10 (All-In), Hero calls $39.10 (All-In)

    Total pot: $105.20 | Rake: $3


    2. Villain is 81/58/1.6 over 72 hand and stealing 78% of the time. His river aggression was infinity which made me want to call but it seems like too many two pair or straights can be in his range.

    1. I like calling a pot-sized bet but I think I fold to the overbet.

    2. I 3bet pre alot. As played I call river too.

    In #1, sure pot odds are smaller with a pot sized bet but do you think overbetting as opposed to betting pot is a tell in general? I know it's always player dependent but just curious if in general.

    In #2, I can understand 3betting (for value, right?) but he hadn't folded once to a 3bet and he was only 50bb deep. But, again, we are ahead of his calling range anyways.

    Hand 1 - gaah I don't know. ALLL the draws in the world missed, so I'm pretty tempted to call. I'd have to make my decision in the moment on feel and timing on this one I think.

    Hand 2 - I don't mind flatting pre, I prob flat these fish a fair bit and just fill it up once I hit. I'm never ever folding this river to this villain, and I'm probably leading 3 streets vs this guy if he's stationy. If he's more aggro than stationy, then I like a c/c down.

    hand 1 i might call in the heat of things if he has been THAT aggro on all 3 streets, but a fold is probably correct.

    hand 2 is fine. How about donking the turn? seems like enough we beat would still call?
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.
