Wacko hand, are we going for value here?

1/3 NLHE 9 handed.

V1 - Semi-drunk MAWG, got upset when I called him out on a string bet first hand I sat down. Was up huge and now has given some of it back but still covers. His stack is swinging between 500 and 5000$ basically. He's blind raising, blind AI pre etc etc. Covers. SB.

V2 - White woman reg. Somewhat weak tight and passive. Has a tightish continuing range and doesn't put in 'real money' without a big hand. Her betting range is very premium. She check calls a lot though and limp calls a lot pre (hands like QJs, QTs, 67s.. then flops a pair and check calls a bit then folds). She's taken some of V1s money in an AI blind where she had AQo and V1 turned over QQ (he was blind he said but we weren't sure if he looked) but an A flopped. 600$ MP.

H has 750$ in CO.

--- Aside - BTN is a turbo nit ---

V1 tries to put 100$ in blind but house won't allow him because he's SB so he's holding a stack of red just behind the line, UTG+1 limps, V2 limps MP, LJ limps, Hero sees A Q and decides to limp, BTN folds, V1 says 'not feeling it' and hasn't looked at his cards and limps, BB checks. 6-ways IP.

Flop 15 - A J J

V1 blind bets 25, BB folds, UTG+1 folds, V2 calls, LJ folds, Hero decides just call... 3-ways IP.

Turn 90 - 8

V1 checks, V2 checks, Hero bets 50, V1 calls still blind, V2 calls

River 240 - 3

V1 checks, V2 checks, Hero?

I'd be grateful for the chance to get a free showdown.


You still want to bet river??????

It's real thin vs 2, vs just the wacko guy maybe.

If you want to bet, maybe overbet jam and hope V2 folds her whole range. Then wacko guy looks you up with ATC? I dunno lol


Be happy for the free showdown. Next time raise pre regardless of SB. If he wants to put it in blind, he still will.


Why not bet one third or quarter pot river? If she raises just fold. You can have flushes too here. Id flop raise though. On the river are you ahead of her calling range at least half the time? If she has loads of Ax then you are. Would she play a jack this way?

I'm more worried about V1 raising a river bet. Seems as if we'd have to call him? Unless he's never done that and is just raising pre?


yuck. I think I just check it back see a showdown wacko guy playing bingo I just don't love it.


Result:

I bet 75, V1 blind calls and V2 folds. V1 has 6 3, my thought was V2 leads river with all flushes.

Meh, there's already 3 limpers to us knowing the going rate is likely going to be $100. There's a very good chance we're the ones being tarped. I like just limping in and evaluating what goes down; if it limps around, oh noes, suited broadway in a multiway high SPR pot in position.

Oh, gg, I am raising. I'll take my chances. But I don't limp AA/KK/AK/QQ, etc., either 😉
