Message: [QUOTE="eetenor, post: 6161023, member: 385063"] Thank you for posting Low stakes players are often straight forward in their actions. Therefore we can take actions that are straight forward as well and still have a very good ROI. This flop smashes the V's range for 2 pair + and high equity draws and half of the V's range is never calling a flop bet. There are so many cards we will have to check fold turn on and as in this case the V raises not calls our bet when our range hits this board. Straight forward players do not try to get strong UTG ranges to fold by using board texture, therefore the V's range is strong enough for us to have very difficult decisions turn and river. OOP we cannot expect to get 3 streets of value easily on this board and the V can float a wide range here nuts included so even a call is not great for us. When we bet out the V will raise protect 2 pair and sets and semi bluffs so we cannot weigh the raise to draws and bluffs more than made hands. The combos of those made hands in the V's range are numerous as well Therefore checking to pot control is the best choice here. The V will bet their 1 pair hands for us so we miss very little equity and we can call 2 streets as standard V's frequency of 3 bet bluffs is so low that they will often check give up rivers. When we check the V will include more of their bluff range in their bets than if we bet. As played you have to call turn and decide river as the V will give up on bluffs with a high frequency as I said and some low stakes V will check back top pair- so the river call/fold is easier if we get the right card or price. As played an extreme but profitable play vs the majority of low stakes players is-we can bet fold the AA on the flop. The skill level of most low stakes players is low enough that we can fold and move on to better spots. If you are multi-tabling it is just not worth the brain effort to battle in this ugly a spot for a possible $2 return. It is good that you want to reflect on and grow from this situation. Hope this helps :):) [/QUOTE]
