Context:
Playing a €55 Tournament in the Jackpot. Tournament has only attracted 9 runners so we are essentially playing a SNG.
Reads:
Villian in this hand is around 21, arrived wearing a Trinity Hoodie and claims to have finished the last of his yearly exams this morning. I'd reckon he's had a couple of beers over the course of the day, and he has been chattering in an excitable fashion about the HC Final.
The first hand he sat into the table, he minraised UTG (15k starting stacks, he joined at 75 / 150 level) and got four callers, raised an 800 lead from the Big Blind on a 2s3c8s flop to 2.5k, bet another 2.5k when checked to on a 6 turn, and shoved over a 3k donk on a 9 spade draw completing (I think) river. He refused to say what he had after BB had folded. Apart from that he has been active enough, raising and continuation betting a number of times, and doesn't seem your usual live Dublin player - though he has limped in a couple of times.
All he would have seen me do of note is call a raise on the button from his opponent on the above hand with KQ, and pay off a flop and river bet on a KJXXX board to lose a medium sized pot to AK.
Hand:
Villain minraises UTG to 400 (blinds now 100 / 200), folds to me in Hijack and I 3 - bet to 1200 with AKo from a ~ 11k stack. Villain is only caller.
Flop (2700): KQ9 rainbow
Villian checks quickly and I check behind quick enough.
Turn (2700): 7 bringing a spade draw
Villian leads for 1200 and I quickly call
River (5100): 5 missing the Spade draw
Villain checks quick enough again, and I bet 2200 without too much hesitation. He immediately starts fingering chips and then repops to 7500. If I called I'd leave 1075 chips behind.
FWIW, he's looking away from me up at a television above my right shoulder.
Eh, I don't ever fold right?
