[Closed] 88 Rivered Set

im not the evaluator here, but i think you played it alright, seems like he has two pair or weeker set to me as well,or maybe hes a sick bastard and slowplaying his kings ♦

what was he holding ?

PF: raise for value and to pick up the blinds. Your hand is pretty strong HU versus the superloose CO.

Flop: Bet since you probably have the best hand. Furthermore if T,J etc comes on the turn you may be outdrawn. Betting is likely to thin the field and make turns much easier to play.

TU:WP

Ri:Very opponent specific but calling doesn't seem too bad as putting in almost a whole stack on the river when beat hurts just too much.

PreFlop : I think raise for value vs. 3 people ar prety silly. (no offence)

Flop: I think bet is fine but check is better whit 3 player in the pot.

Hello jdnismo,

Preflop: Against CO stack I guess I wouldn't raise it. Limping is totally fine. If we raise then we practically plan to go broke against him.
Flop: Just donk it, it's very often the case that you take down the pot right here.

As played
Turn: Possible to Call while he may easily even have any kind of draws/pair type of hands which you even beat.
River: Although I am not a big fan of shipping it here. He doesn't have that many Kx hands in his range like K2/K6/K5. Only reasonable hand we might be against is some kind of set which was slowplaying. Guess myself I'd Call vs his 3bet while being in freeplay pot. Also it's not only 34/74 but also 97.

Board: 2♦6♥K♣ 5♥ 8♣
       Equity     Win     Tie
UTG    61.54%  61.54%   0.00% { 66-55, 22, K6s-K5s, K2s, 97s, 74s, 43s, 43o }
UTG+1  38.46%  38.46%   0.00% { 8d8s }

That's the reason why I'd rather prefer calling.

Best regards.

Ah yes ofc 97, missed that somehow But he had 74o anyway

There is one opponent who is playing virtually ATC and another two who may not want to play for a raise. We have almost 70% equity versus the co's range and possibly dead-money to boot. I believe no silliness here.

@ Veriz: The CO is probably playing all Kx hands.

That might be true but he wouldn't overplay all Kx hands and just some weak pairs. That's just a freeplay pot.
