What do I have?

Postby iceman5 » Thu Aug 04, 2005 11:24 am

Hand #1) 2 limpers, I limp in MP, another limper., button raises to $40. Blinds fold. UTG calls, I call, cutoff calls.

4 to the flop and the pot is $185. The flop comes [Ad][2d][As]. Checked around.
Pot still $185. UTG checks, I bet $100.....what do I have?


Hand #2) EP (BIG stack) raises to $35, I reraise to $100...only he calls and we're heads up.

Pot is $215. The flop comes [4s][2d][6s]. He checks and I bet $120...he calls.
Pot is $455. The turn is the [Ac]. He checks and I bet $250 What do I have?

Hand #3) Im in the SB. 1 limper and then same villian from hand #2 raises to $40 on the button. I call and BB calls. Limper folds.

Pot is $120. Flop comes [3c][6d][7s]. I check, BB checks and button bets $120. I call and BB folds.

Pot is $370. The turn is the [8h]. I check and he bets $350. I check raise all in to $820. he has me covered. What do I have?

Hand #1, what was the turn card??

Hand #2, [As][Ks]? Is AKs a re-raising hand for you? I can't figure out any other hand where a half-pot bet on flop & turn would make sense with two spades out there. Maybe if you know he doesn't raise without a pair, you're not scared of the flush so you have AA.

Hand 1 - I guess the turn card means nothing since you didn't put it out? I put you on a mid pocket pair like 88 or 99.

Hand 2 - You could have anywhere from AA-JJ and AK. You would bet the flop with all of them heads up and you would probably raise with them too. For some reason, I'm putting you on KK and you don't like the A really but you at least have to represent it and make it seem like you aren't scared of it.

1) I'll say 35s not diamonds. Maybe you're getting a lot looser at $1000 NL :lol:

2) I think AK of spades is a strong possibility here, perhaps AA with the A of spades. Your bets look to me as though you don't mind action.

3) Initially this looked like you could easily be bluffing, but you don't have enough for your check raise to push him off hands so I don't think you'd bluff, so I'll say 45s-89s

#1) You guys really think I would bet a middle pair into a board with 2 aces, when theres still another caller AND the original raiser yet to act? Either of them could easily check trip aces around on the flop.

Hand #3: I don't think of you as playing 54s a whole lot. But I don't see you check-calling with a set, with the SB still in there behind you who might call, on that coordinated a board. And I don't see you calling full pot with only a gutshot, so T9s is unlikely too. So I'm going with 54s. Otherwise 33 66 or 77. 88 is out. Maybe 78???

(2) KK
(3) 66 or 77

I forgot hand 3. I think you may have a set and mixing it up because that 8 didn't help you. You either have a set, 45 or 67 and I'm leaning at 67s.

Ice - I'd bet you have dueces in Hand 1 - outside shot of 44, but 22 is my guess.

Hand 2, AA?

The play on hand 3 is perplexing to me. If you have a solid read this cat doesnt play crap, I'd sayAA or a set of 7's.

Ah, good point allstar. I completely missed the possibility of a high pocket pair in hand 3. I revise my thinking to put you on AA or KK, probably AA.
