  1. How a stupid player played like that and loss all his money. Why not just give up on the flop when you had nothing? And why not just play aggressively out of position with JJ? I think limp re-raising or 4betting preflop is fine, instead of having to deal with the river decision.

  2. i didn't watch the end yet, but i'd say the way that down the best villain has is AT..if he had TT or a bigger pocket pair why the hell wouldn't he bet the flop?

  3. I think there's too much emphasis placed on "flush blockers". It's possible that more than 1 person has clubs when there's 2 clubs on the board.

  4. Most important question: How Villain plays rivers, he may 3bet wide PRE but is he capable of making Raises on the RIVER with bluffs. Raising a bet Allin on the river is an intense spot high pressure situations, Live reads are critical and knowing that your opponent is capable is critical.

  5. What is he representing, Not pocket 9's, he was bluffing, good call, he wanted to push you off your JJ, weak rep of pocket AAs, good call based on player info.

  6. I kind of like this call, because I dont think, Villain is representing much of anything with this line. Would he check back a vulnerable top pair like T9 or slight overpair like TT on the flop? Or would he slowplay a flopped set and risk not getting stacks inside? Or would he even play aces or kings this way and expect, that his raise on the river is for value? Neither of that makes much sense.
