I had a feeling he flopped a set….should I still call the river bet?
I think you lost the minimum. Yeah, the river call is ok imo, can’t really see a fold here. Villain could have a lower flush, something like QJdd, JTdd, he might have flopped 2 pairs, and decide to c/c the turn, and since every body else checked it, he’s trying to extract some more value on the river, not fearing a trip 8s. Could he even have stuff like AK, KQ… well maybe he c/c the river with those hands… but what i’m saying is that you can’t really fold the river, we basically fear KK and JJ… plus : our hand is super disguised
Yes, I feel like you really need to call the river. The whole reason you’re in the Hand is to make the nut flush. And you made it. His bet was not too out of line. At least you noticed there was a potential full house and didn’t re raise. In that spot you would only get called by a better hand. So you really only last a minimum.
I think you played this exactly the way I would HOPE to play this hand. You played it for the flush, you made the flush, you have to at least call. I would be hard-pressed to not hammer that river, but I would have lost some serious coin! Well done.
Hey Trent,
I would call that river bet every time as well. I feel like I would 3-bet it 90% of the time unless I knew this player well and had some specific reason not to, with the understanding, of course, that player will sometimes be dominating with this line. He’s playing it really “big pocket pair” so what can you do.
With you holding Ad and Kd on the board it seems his range is really limited here. Best case is he’s on AxAx, KxQd, JxQd, QxQd or the dream hand QdJd. Would this player 3-bet here with all of, or any of these hands? In the SB?
It looks like he played this pretty transparent, so I guess if you were the nitty-est player ever you could find a fold on the flop, but what fun would that be and you’ve flopped nearly best case scenario for your hand so bailing seems out of the question. Most other flops and you could get off this easily. I think I would have gotten stacked 9/10 times here, so chalk your flat on the river up to good play.
Cheers!
