Message: [QUOTE="GreenDaddy1, post: 6181401, member: 337531"] SNAP on 888. Only 100 hands on villain. No idea on 3 Bet range but he wasnt shy of a 3 bet, 4 times in 100 hands. Otherwise was a 20/18 who was positionally aware. So anyway I've been 4 betting AK more lately, unless someone is obviously tight. It works great when they just fold... but got myself in a bit of a pickle here :rolleyes: Looking back this was pretty deep, maybe calling the 3 bet here was a better move. What does he call the 4 bet with? A lot of AA and KK are 5 betting or shoving. Maybe AK, AQ, AJs are calling? QQ & JJ possible. ATs an outlier. KQs and KJs seem unlikely and I wouldnt be calling with them myself, but it is 5nl so eh stranger things happen. His stats look good enough to indicate a pretty tight calling range here anyway. Flop: Smoked by QQ and any sneaky KK but value to be had from AQ and setting up an eventual chop with AK. Could be a flush draw, or a straight draw that will call too. So I bet. Guess have to mention KQs too which has flopped 2 pair. Turn: Interesting turn. I've now got a nut flush draw and a draw to a straight too. It is a card that potentially gives draws to villain too (even completes an unlikely straight if AT floated flop). With my draws to the nuts and top pair top kicker I bet again setting up a potential river shove.... (I didnt jam here because I felt I was loosing value against draws that might call another bet but not call a shove) River: ...unless the board pairs on a J. Lost my nerve here. Decided that if I was beat I was going to lose my stack one way or the other, but the best way to get the most value was to let him bluff and just call it off. Had I just shoved I'd have expected worse hands to just fold and only better hands to call it off. These are the sorts of hands I need to really make sure I know what I am doing if I am going to keep on blasting 4 bets around, so get stuck in! :) [B]Pacific Poker - $0.05 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players[/B] [I][URL="http://www.pokertracker.com"]Hand converted by PokerTracker 4[/URL][/I] [B]BTN: 214.2 BB[/B] SB: 121 BB BB: 121.4 BB [B]Hero (UTG): 152.4 BB[/B] MP: 155 BB CO: 40 BB SB posts SB 0.4 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB [B]Pre Flop:[/B] [I](pot: 1.4 BB)[/I] [B]Hero[/B] has A[COLOR=red]♥[/COLOR] K[COLOR=red]♥[/COLOR] [COLOR=red][B]Hero[/B] raises to 3 BB[/COLOR], [I]fold[/I], [I]fold[/I], [COLOR=red][B]BTN[/B] raises to 9 BB[/COLOR], [I]fold[/I], [I]fold[/I], [COLOR=red][B]Hero[/B] raises to 20 BB[/COLOR], [B]BTN[/B] calls 11 BB [B]Flop:[/B] [I](41.4 BB, 2 players)[/I] 4[COLOR=red]♦[/COLOR] K[COLOR=red]♦[/COLOR] Q[COLOR=red]♥[/COLOR] [COLOR=red][B]Hero[/B] bets 16.4 BB[/COLOR], [B]BTN[/B] calls 16.4 BB [B]Turn:[/B] [I](74.2 BB, 2 players)[/I] J[COLOR=red]♥[/COLOR] [COLOR=red][B]Hero[/B] bets 37.8 BB[/COLOR], [B]BTN[/B] calls 37.8 BB [B]River:[/B] [I](149.8 BB, 2 players)[/I] J[COLOR=black]♣[/COLOR] [B]Hero[/B] checks, [COLOR=red][B]BTN[/B] bets 112.2 BB[/COLOR], [B]Hero[/B] calls 78.2 BB and is all-in [SPOILER] [B]BTN[/B] shows A[COLOR=red]♦[/COLOR] J[COLOR=red]♦[/COLOR] (Three of a Kind, Jacks) (Pre 29%, Flop 45%, Turn 27%) [B]Hero[/B] shows A[COLOR=red]♥[/COLOR] K[COLOR=red]♥[/COLOR] (Two Pair, Kings and Jacks) (Pre 71%, Flop 55%, Turn 73%) [B]BTN[/B] wins 288.2 BB[/SPOILER] [/QUOTE]
