Reads:

None. This is my 4th hand at table.


Hand:


Villian limps, all folds to me I raise to $11 with [Jh] all folds and Villian calls

flop: [5c][2s] $24

Villian Checks, I bet $20, Villian calls

turn: $64

Check, check

river' $64

Villian checks, I bet $55, Villian calls [7h]


Analysis:

flop: He calls my flop bet. So this could mean FD, he could have 22,55,TT but I think those may raise due to the FD out. He may also have JT,QT,KT,AT type.

turn: He checked again. This looks like a FD and in retrospect I should hve 2 barreled as he has shown nothing yet and I am most likley ahead,

river: He checks again. This looks like busted FD all the way and I am ahead of a busted draw unless he has Acxc I should just check and take my pot. As a bet has no positive expectation here.

Conclusion:

Obviously this guy is either (A) a station or (B) he called my flop bet OOP just to float me? Either way I made a note.

If you are going to bet a second street, make it the turn rather than the river.

Classic hand from villain. I love his line. Don't bluff calling stations who will call flops down w 8 high and backdoor double bellybuster gutshots? Thats some aggro floating, I hope u took a note. If you are going to bet the river do it when an OC comes so u can rep it or fire the turn. if he's calling the flop I don't think a 7 changes anything for him on the river after ur turn check.

Hehe that is some agressive OOP floating. SO I am taking it he is a station. But even if he is not I made a few big notes.

Firing turn is better than river (as Semillon stated), even better might be to hope for a paint card you can credibly represent. Your line here reps air. Would you bet $55 on the river with a made hand you pot controlled on the turn with?

Please tell me his name.
