Hi
I haven’t been playing poker in quite a long time and over the past few weeks I’ve been playing a bit more and analysing how I play a in do it more. The play below is probably quite straightforward but i would appreciate your comments as its been bothering me.
The below is most of the info I can remember from the hand however I would probably remember additional details if there are any elements that would be relevant but I haven't included.
Live hand, 6 handed.
€400 (Hero – Button)
€550 (Villain – BB)
Blinds 1 / 2 pot limit
I’ve A10os, folded to me I make it 7 to go. SB folds, BB calls.
BB has been active at the table, playing in around 40/25 guesstimate and has been very aggressive on the flop and turn when he has a piece.* He has been calling a lot of raises from the BB, I would say 80% of the time.* He has check-raised me off 2 or 3 pots throughout the night where I’ve been weak/trying to steal a pot in position.* He’s also seen me raise pre flop, bet the flop, turn and fire on the river with nothing.
I’ve been playing about 30/25 I think . I’ve been raised off quite a few hands following continuation bets ive made and I would say the perception is that I can be raised off pots where I’m not strong as I haven’t 3bet much.* He has been also been betting or raising with pairs on the flop all night, especially heads up.* When he is calling bets he is generally drawing.
Flop A spades 5clubs 9spades
Villain checks
Hero bets €13
Villain calls............€41 in the pot.
Turn 2 diamonds.
Villain checks, hero bets €30.
Villain makes it €125.
At this point my feelings are that Villain is weak, flush draw , possibly with low pair.*if this is my read then what's the best play? as In do I flat call knowing the odds are against him hitting his flush and him firing on the river or do I ship on turn?
My thoughts are that this is a ship on the turn, always, but not 100 percent on how I'm reaching that conclusion.
Thanks in advance.
