Jaded Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Nothing much in the way of a read on Christoz here. 75 mins or so into the tourney, am 12th of 36 at the moment - 18 places paid. Decided to go for a bluff with A5s, then made a continuation bet on the flop to see what he did. What should I go for now?

Nade Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Re: Bluff Called By Limper, What Next? Looks like he has a big-ish hand, limped in early position and if he knows there 's usually a raise behind him (possibly by you? ;)) then he'll let others do the work. He doesn't have too many chips left either so seems like he wants to extract the maximum he can and this is shown through by checking then calling the big bet on the flop. I think you're behind so should just give it up and check and hope it's checked down and he has KQ which might be your best chance as he's already called 2 big bets, he's unlikely to budge to much from a 3rd bet anyway imo. You still have a large-ish stack so no harm in giving it up after you've played at the pot on the flop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robilaruk Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Re: Bluff Called By Limper, What Next? he is flushing - check and bet the river if a non flush card comes Damo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nade Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Re: Bluff Called By Limper, What Next? he is flushing - check and bet the river if a non flush card comes Damo Maybe that's what he wants to represent but it would be a really poor play if he is as he didn't have the odds on the call on the flop, plus he's short stacked so the play is even riskier. Just doesn't make logical sense to me as he'd want to be making plays where he was favourite instead of chasing draws he doesn't have the odds for, but it is a possibility.

robsterling Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Re: Bluff Called By Limper, What Next? I think you got to let this one go, check-fold. Out of wonder why did you decide to bluff, you have 30 BBs so can afford to wait for a genuine hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaded Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 Re: Bluff Called By Limper, What Next? I bluffed for the reasons Damo gave above. (So HA! to those people who thought I bluffed because I'm a muppet...) I decided, as Damo did, that he was flushing, so shoved. He turns over... Ks Js. My A high holds up, and he's out. Thanks for the comments guys - well read Damo, and Nade, I agree with you - terrible play from him IMO. Not saying mine was brilliant by any means, but his was shocking.

AJ Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Re: Bluff Called By Limper, What Next? agreed his play was poor, the check from him on the turn was dreadful, gave away his whole game plan. If he'd bet out about 2/3 of pot at the turn, representing an overpair, what would you have done ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
