QJ on the btn

#1 1st April 2018, 6:19 AM

One early and middle limper. Hero calls as do the blinds. Flop is KT5. Hero bets 7bbs. UTG calls. Turn brings a 2. Check check. River is a J. Check and bet 7bbs. Reraise to 18bbs. Call or reraise?

some terrible hand history there. you don't even say what position your in .....anyways if your opponent bets river on a board of ( K,T,5,2,J ) I can't understand what in the world you would think of re-raising there..your hand history is so terrible though i don't even know who is raising there lol. You have a pair of Jacks with a weak kicker. Your only option here is to call or fold. Your beat by so many hands there. 10/9, Any King, J10, 98,A10 just ****ing everything. don't raise shit don't even call lol.

yes that was my first thought, "call or reraise"??? what about fold! lol. i think i would fold, but as other guy says, could use a little more info, suits?

#4 1st April 2018, 7:17 AM

I would have just checked behind on the river. As played would fold unless I had a lot of history on the villain saying they XR bluff a lot. In the games I play a XR on the river is almost never a bluff.

Sure unless the asshole reads you as tight passive and is ****ng you over.

Naw, Hero should raise 6bbs preflop to pressurize the weak Aces and then bet 22 bbs on the River.

If the board was suited, that would've been indicated. Since V checked the flop, he can't have top pair.

I'm a bit confused, to make te correct move, there's a lot of actions to consider before do anything.

What is the villains image?
Do you put him in a range? Which?
There's a flush draw in the flop?

You may consider fold in this case. I advise you to study a little more the basics and then a little probability, it's also important learn about potodds.

Even such a terrible hand like K2s will beat you. He wouldn't bet the flop for sure or may be he would. Easy fold for me here.

I wouldnt even have been in that pot after the initial 7bb raise, I certainly wouldn't be in after the j on the river, the re raise would make me fold immediately. Too many people in the pot and the jq is just too weak.

call. weak hands will fall to your rereise, and strong will make still rereise. I advise with DJ not to come into banks)

You call to pick off a bluff.

#13 5th April 2018, 5:33 AM

On the button not playing QJ is inane.

#14 5th April 2018, 9:58 AM

I think the mistake is not to raise preflop. Then not following up the flop cbet with a bet on the turn. Then the river bet is just way too low to rep anything more your busted draw.

Looking at the various comments by initiator, reraise would be in line with the preferred image/style.
Depending the table / game / players I doubt if all will fold to the bluff.

That's not true at all - just because you have position doesn't mean you need to play it. I have folded QJ there so many times I've lost count because the table/players aren't suited for it, and most of the times I do muck it, I don't regret it.

Just because you have a medium connector doesn't mean it's worth playing. It's odds of striking something worth playing are okay late, I will give you that.

It would be raise against early and middle kallers for heads up action. It should've been played as per your analysis given the villain had lag tendencies.
