Villain a Brazilian winning player and is basically running over the table but imo he's also running godly, haven't seem him caught bluffing and when it looks like he could be, he has the nuts or close to it when called down. Earlier on when we were 8handed at this table I opened JJ from MP, btn flatted, and he squeezed, I 4b, he timebanked for about 40 seconds and folded.
Another hand he CR'd me on 9KQss and I folded.
His stats are 36/30 w/ 14% 3b over 158 hands.
How would you play the turn? b/f, b/c/reevaluate riv?
I figured that he could be raising the turn with the Ad or Kd in his hand, or he checked back this flop with a FD trying to disguise his hand as most would obv cbet this flop with a FD.
On the river he timed-down from like 80 seconds all the way to 10 seconds before betting: imo when people bluff they usually bet a lot quicker rather than slower. I have 190k left on the river.

Fold pre and avoid these marginal situations.
I fold. Top pair meh kicker is rarely winning here.

Guess I should have titled this as turn and river play, but I'm definitely concerned about whether my turn call is bad or not.

Given the number of draws out that he could on, it probably isn't that bad. I could see 3betting the turn to like 80k if you think he as some sort of combo draw like Ad6x or something.
Villain could be bluffing, but some of his bluffs (like over pairs and 2 pair) still beat us.
Spots like this is the reason why I fold pre. Also, given the stacks of the other players, I want to try and avoid getting into OOP battles with the big stack with marginal holdings.

From your impression of villain, I fold to his raise on the turn. He hasn't shown any bluffs and has always had it, what makes you think he is bluffing now ?
That turn card brings flushes and straights in, plus two pairs, etc.. Your nine is no longer good.

umm i 3bet prob 100% of the time pre, then this hand is played pretty easy from there, cbet flop get it in, or if he flats flop check jam turn on him. As played fold river, call on turn is ok i think but his range is so wide that 68 is in there j10 with a diamond yada yada lol. Think hes more likely to check back the flop with some sort of weaker draw, only thing we are beating is AK or AQ with ad i think.
jdAA88
alright thanks

i think you need to lead the river as a blocking bet...even if hes extra lag he can't really bluff raise you there....
and i don't think i would lead the turn as hes very likely to raise you with most of his range...and when he does you don't have so much equity to protect and call.....i would fold to that raise probably. plus the river won't be friendly when he'll barrel at anything
but against a loose aggressive winning player i think you can just check call all the way here and keep the pot small and expect to be ahead a lot.
but as he has the ability to show up with sets two pair flushes straight and over pairs prob a sure fold...

Based on all given information I would be almost certain you were beat there.
For some reason if I were in the situation I'd want to put him on a hand like 10's with a diamond, or maybe even 6's.
Unlike some previous posts, I do think it was correct to defend your big blind here, however leading out on the turn was a bit of a shaky play.
I think you would have been much better off checking for pot control, and in reality just try to get a bit more information out of the hand.

Id bet a lot of money he doesnt have 1010, who is gonna check back 1010 on the flop here? your crazy

In this instance if I am check the flop I also check the turn. The 5d just makes the board that much more nastier and with 1 pair no kicker I am not looking to play a big pot.
With that being said, his hand smells like some sort of combo pair/flush draw on the turn. Those min raises are "I want to see where you are at, but if you get it in, I will be calling so make sure you have it"

i agree in most cases but here if hes a good lag reg ip then it could mean he will call or fold i think....

I'd probably call river, I'd expect him to cbet diamonds and 86 810 cause it makes sense to do so. furthermore I wouldn't really expect him to give up after not cbetting
Edit: the mentality of many lag players seems to be "how can i get this guy to fold again and again" rather than "how can I extract think value from my image"
betrthanphil
what hand are you putting him on to call, you cant just say im gonna call because i think im winning. In order to make good river calls you have to put your opponent on a hand that your beating. I think there are way more hands that are beating us that are in his range being played this way then ones we arent

i missed that so its a thought, but i think if i were lag i would never cbet this with something like diamonds because its a horrible semi-bluff when people won't fold to you as much. Also if hes smarter then he wouldn't want to get check raised of that board. I think hes more like to cbet air ....

what if I feel like his entire bluffrange might be played like this? how can I range that?

Richard~;288985 wrotewhat if I feel like his entire bluff range might be played like this? how can I range that?
first start with his value range then see how much bluff he needs to make calling profitable ???
Richard~
meh, that's hard. I'd assume he'd valuebet two pairs with a 9 in his hand any 6 and any flush as well as J10. As far as the bluffing side goes I'd expect him to turn some pairs less than 9s into bluffs bluff a bunch of broadways, naked 1 diamond hands and his whole pokerbook telling him that it's good to pressure finaltable bubbles in all situations no matter what
Anyway, it's too hard, can't I just click call and fistpump if I win?
Edit: Seriously though, another thing to factor in is that our percieved range here is fairly weak, it's a decent spot to bluff. That said, the sizing of the bet itself is something I feel is generally used for both bluffs and value so it's not some kind of fancy valuebet bluff. it's a straight up bluff of a straight up largeish valuebet

I think you giving villian a lot of credit. Basically your giving him credit for having the plan once he saw the flop to go with a delayed cbet instead of on the flop and once he seen the lead he raised as his plan was to be aggro on the turn. I dont think I would give him that much credit. Also if your saying he is suppose to be aggro on FT bubbles then i expect him to cbet a flop against a BB caller. These boards are very dangerous for a bb calling range. It seems to me that he isnt worried at all about what hero has which leads me to believe that he has a hand that he believes is good.
I also expect him to check back both a 6 and j10.
