not so great flush face action in 3bet pot

not so great flush face action in 3bet pot

Villain has normal stats, 22/19 3bet 9% etc etc

I find the line very weird, but of course their story is "I have Ah more than you do and you would not check it on the flop", which might be true.

€0.10 NL FAST (6 max)

Hero (BTN): 128.5 BB
SB: 100 BB
BB: 319 BB
UTG: 100 BB
MP: 202.2 BB
CO: 103 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has A Q

fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to 2.5 BB, SB raises to 11 BB, fold, Hero calls 8.5 BB

Flop: (23 BB, 2 players) 7 4 5
SB checks, Hero checks

Turn: (23 BB, 2 players) 6
SB bets 16.4 BB, Hero calls 16.4 BB

River: (55.8 BB, 2 players) K
SB bets 72.6 BB and is all-in, Hero ?

Oops, there are straight flushes available also, I did not notice. Sigh...


Don't worry. He probably missed that too and is only jamming the third and fourth nuts.

😃


I’m out.


I’d call pretty fast. Your hand is face up as a bluff catcher


Stab flop
AP-I dont think this is good spot to call down


I would fold turn. Risk/revard ratio not good enough.


Easy to be over aggro vs capped range here. Also very likley that he cb very often his Ax flushdraws so he has less of them here and if he would have a ahigh flush i dont think he jams here all in with the 8 and 3 making the straighflush i guess he realy didnt notice it wile blindly attacking the capped range.
If he would value bet i think he would be more likley to notice the streightflush so seems like a easy call here.

Spot on!

Thanks, and also everyone else who replied.

In game I just thought "oh well, I can't only call with the nuts" (even though I did not identify Qh was much lower than I thought, timebank pressure makes me stupid sometimes).

It turns out this opponent is more spewy than their raw stats indicate.
