  • Irish Poker Open 6-max delayed c-bet hand 1 OOP and hand 2 IP

    Posted by jim on April 10, 2024 at 9:52 am

    Hi @petvet I thought these might be good hands for your review group. People were giving my 3-bets a ton of credit, even when I ‘gave up’ and checked flops. So I was looking to capitalize on that with delayed cbets and delayed double barrels.

    hand 1

    level 13, late reg is closed but we have not quite made the money yet so I can apply some bubble pressure as a bigger stack at my table

    blinds 2,500 / 5k / 5k

    I have 42 bigs (210,000) and cover villain by a few, he has about 40 bigs (200,000)

    villain HJ opens 2x to 10k, button calls, hero in SB with Ah6h 3! to 8bigs 40k, blinds fold, OR villain calls, btn folds.

    Flop – pot is 20.5 bigs – JTTr – X,X

    Turn – 20.5 bigs – JTT 8 rainbow – hero lead 6 bigs into 20.5, villain calls

    river – 32.5 bigs – JTT 8 2 – hero shoves 28 bigs, villain folds and says “JJ is the only hand you 3-bet and then check that flop”

    hand 2

    level 22, 11 players left, final table combines at 7 players

    blinds 20,000 / 40,000 / 40,000 I have about 1,400,000 chips so about 35 bigs

    villain is an excellent french player, really savvy and everyone knew him – he covers me by a bit, has less than 2M chips

    villain opens HJ 2x to 80k, hero in btn 3! to 5.5 bigs or 220k blinds fold, OR calls

    flop – pot is 13.5 bigs – KTTr – X, X

    turn – 13.5 bigs – KTTr 4r – X, hero bets 4 bigs, villain calls

    river – 21.5 bigs – KTT 4 6 – X, hero bets 15 bigs (more than half my stack) villain folds and says “I folded JJ i am sure you had KK there.” I say nothing and just nod politely as I stack up the chips. He says “if I 4bet shove preflop there, you call, yes?” I say “I would have to think about it” and he says “I don’t believe you”

    if he was a worse player I would have considered giving him more info about my hand or thinking – but just played it mum and tried to give away as little as possible. He busted a couple orbits later, which was great because he was def one of the better players left in the field.
