villain makes his standard preflop raise to 3.5x
this villain is playing 27/19 thru 138 hands sample size to know hes playing loose and will overcommit with overpairs and AK.
i think i can outskill him even oop postflop with this type of hand, and i had a theory of how to possibly get him to overcommit postflop if i hit my hand. He probably thinks im a big fish because of how loose ive been playing preflop.54/30/9 thru 155 hands. what they hadnt figured out yet about me and i knew this for a fact was:
i was playing tight post flop and would only stack off with what i felt to be strong hands. no top pairs or any type of that crap for the most part.
So i hit the flop and decide that a check raise is the best way to go. Im not putting him on a better hand in a million years with his range. I decide to try and bait him into reraising with a min raise, but it doesnt work, but a fantastic card falls on the turn, the A. Which hits his range very well and now he might think hes well ahead with his AK or AQ. He could even still have many other hands in his range that would like to bluff at the A or even value raise with FD+A. I decide to bet just under half pot and hope again that he raises me. Im still well ahead of his range. He decides to get it in and im happy to oblige. i got what i wanted right? but i still feel the bet sizing could be like $.98 or something there instead of what i bet.
