Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.5/$1 Fixed-Limit Hold'em (2 handed)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J:s, 7:c.
SB raises, Hero calls.

Flop: (4 SB) 7:d, 3:h, J:d (2 players)
Hero checks, SB bets, Hero raises, SB calls.

Turn: (4 BB) Q:h (2 players)
Hero bets, SB raises, Hero 3-Bets, SB calls.

River: (10 BB) A:c (2 players)
Hero bets, SB raises, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 14 BB.

I am never ahead on the river here... His range consists of AQ, KT and maybe some AA. But I get 1:12... and the opponent is not that solid, rather weak player.

Well played.
He could be raising you with loads of draws on the turn, as it is extremly drawy and only KT gets there on the river.

He might raise you turn with Ahigh flsuhdraws on the turn as there is a chance you fold some low pairs, and then he just hit the ace on the river.

He might even try to bluff raise you with busted draw when ace comes, it's not a play opponents would make frequently on average, but it's possible espeacially in cases where he puts you on the draw when you 3 bet turn, giving you are aggresive.

You have to keep in mind that HU open raise range is very wide (75-100%), so it's just no way to fold here with 2p.

For 1:13 its a clear call.

Btw: don't play HU on 0.5/1 cause rake is like 10BB/100.

I don't usually play HU, maybe I started a new table or previous table was broken up. But I think it's +EV to play HU against super fishes/nits even at 0.5/1.

If you can beat them for 12BB/100, it's profitable, but i dont think it's sustainable longrun although there isn't any good player at 0.5/1, because it's even hard to beat complete fish for that much in FL (longrun) because you cant push your edge so much because of small betting amounts.

I am nut sure if it really is 10BB/100 though, but i know it is over 5BB/100 on 1/2, so it might be 10BB/100 on 0.5/1 :)

Well, it seems to be so profitable to join a 6-max table, take position over "blue-marked" fish who sits there alone and play 20 hands against him before he leaves or other people join. Maybe I'm wrong though

Well i guess its really possbile against some players.. just had a 500 hands session with a guy that pretty much folded everything but mid pair and better :) and was 100% predictable, pwning him for 20BB/100 with my SD wons 49% and his 57%, and we went to the SD less than 30% lolz.

But this guy really was an exception, noone so far has been so weak-tight. There was no need to look at my cards, just press "raise" everytime preflop, and then press "bet" everytime on the flop and turn, and than he folds and thats how all the session went _evil:

Hi!

I totally agree with tomzyb and like your play. HU ranges are much wider so without any further reads 2 pairs are just impossible to fold for 1:13
