Message: [QUOTE="fundiver199, post: 5909535, member: 397965"] Preflop I like the big isolation raise with JJ. Flop This is one of the worst possible flops for JJ, and with two opponents in the hand I would typically just be looking to get to a cheap showdown, if they will allow me. Its kind of a way ahead way behind spot, where your hand dont need much protection, since the A and Q are already on the board. There is also no flushdraw, so the only really bad card for you is a K. And even that is not entirely bad, since it will give you a gutshot to the nuts. I check here all day long and hope, MP checks back. Turn You picked up a dubble gutshot, which is nice, but I still dont see betting doing a lot of good things. Better hands will generally call or raise, and most worse hands will generally fold. I get, what you mean, because your hand block KJ and J9, that turned a straight. But I just dont think, this matter, when they are going to call you with any pair + gutshot type hand or even just top pair no kicker, as the guy in fact did. Its a huge mistake trying to be balanced at 2NL. If a spot is not good for bluffing, then just bet for value. You are going to get called down anyway. River You improved to a set, but any K or 9 now has a straight, and the opponent donk shoves. I would fold in this spot, but I would never get to the river this way in the first place. Results So he had A2, and I guess, he made some tilted bluff on the river. This is pretty funky stuff, that you will see in the low end of the micros from time to time, but I dont think, any decision, you made in this hand, apart from raising preflop, is going to be long term profitable. Not even against a donkey like this. You got very lucky here to not only draw out on him postflop, but also that he made this spazz on the river paying you off. [/QUOTE]
