Nickw1979: put this hand in your blog hand

And I shall, after I apologize. I reread my post about the hand I was involved in with you and I came off as an arrogant dick, obviously because I am, but I didn't mean to pick on you personally and accuse your family of not loving you. Haha with that out of the way, time to share the hand because the guy deserves a free look after I acted like a jackass for no reason and he came across it.

Nickw1979 runs a 16/11/2.2 2.8 game

The flop doesn't hit his range very hard at all. AQ, KQ, QJ are probably his only top pair hands. He's aggressive enough to know when to bet when in position so I opted for the C/R.

SHIPPOPOTAMUS throws up in his mouth a little bit

*** TURN *** [7s 9c Qs] [3s]

The turn is interesting card to use to turn my hand into a bluff. If he looked me up on the flop with a naked pair of 9s JJ, TT, 88, 66-22 there's probably no way he's going to continue on with his hand and he might even dump QJ here.

The spade could have scared him off of raising 99, 77, AQ, or he just hit his combo draw. I do not think T8 is even in his range preflop, JT might be but I don't think he continues with it on the turn after the spade unless of course he has a spade.

When a guy bets the river big who you've never seen bluffing, you fold quickly... as soon as you hollywood the timer for a couple moments.

I think his most likely hand is AQ. Followed by one of those combo spade draws. Followed by a set. If he threw out that 20 with JT, kudos.

  1. Hey Pete,

    No offense taken on the 1979 comment and family.

    I did not have AQ or JT in that hand.
