I am not happy posting this hand because of how terrible I played it, but I want to learn some things from it, so here goes...

Reason for spew - Villan has taken this line a lot, I have played like 4 - 5 games vs him in a row so far and he plays very passive and always seems to check/call check/raise turn when I cbet. I had folded so many times before and just felt like I was getting owned by him a lot. Turns out he was just running like god and hitting flops pretty hard every time (as there are a few hands where I ended up calling and he hit top pair + and took this line)

Ok so about hand assuming we are playing read less.

In this spot do you think its better to check behind and call a turn bet or cbet for protection?

Turn like as played I prefer to check behind, what do you think?

Hello adamall,

Even against such opponent there is no much sense in bet/calling the turn. There are two over cards. On the turn the flush came. We are basicly hero calling against hand like JT and thy are very little part of his range.

Guys if you have any questions, do not hesitate to write in this thread by clicking the button or

Best regards,
Antoan :pokerface:
