Message: [QUOTE="fundiver199, post: 6583297, member: 397965"] Preflop Even if both blinds call, the SPR is still deep enough for plenty of implied odds, when you flop a set, and "sticky station types" probably dont 3-bet all that much. So I would just make a standard raise. I feel, this limping strategy is overthinking the situation quite a bit. Flop Since its a limped pot, its really difficult to get the chips in, so as played I am ok with this pot sized bet. Its still only 29c, and they are going to give it action decently wide. When SB check-raise, we need a very specific and strong read to assume, this can never be a draw. You were the one playing with him, so I can not comment on that. But in general the majority of poker players know, that they can raise draws, and there are lots of draws available on this flop. So my default assumption would be, that this is most likely a draw. But it could also be two pair mainly with T7, or maybe he is overplaying top pair with his AT or whatever. Finally it can also be a better set, but TT probably raise preflop, so that would mostly be 77. Given that we are most likely against a draw (in my opinion) I prefer to fastplay and put in a 3-bet with intention to get it in, if he comes back over the top. But just calling and looking to play the later streets is also ok. Turn As played I would also just call again when he bet almost full pot. You decided to slowplay on the flop, and he seem to be doing a good job at hanging himself, so lets give him a chance to continue with that on the river. River J8 and 86 got there, but for him to have that, it would need to be of clubs specifically. So I think, this was a very good runout for you. He now bet half pot leaving you around the same behind. I think, you have the best hand more than 50% of the time, and then a concept comes into play, which Bart Hansson from Crushlivepoker call "reverse pot odds". If you jam now, it does look very strong, but he will be getting 5:1, so he is not folding any hand, that is doing this for value. So as played I would jam. Folding is definitely not on the table. If he coolered you with a set over set or backed into a straight, it is, what it is. Results So he had a busted draw, which backed into a pair, and still continued bluffing. Or he blockbet the river, because he did not know what to do. Clearly this mean, that your idea, he would not raise a draw on the flop, was off. [/QUOTE]
