I think your thinking is dead on. Nice hand.
ReplyDeleteI neglected to mention why I call the action on the flop - Am I ever folding to a min raise like this? I strongly considered raising the flop after UTG+1 flats the 4bet from BB... But look at these guy's VPIP/PFR. They're outside the norm, granted UTG+1 has only 15 hands... which is why I probably don't 5bet there. However, I'm likely ahead regardless on this kind of flop - which leaves only sets and two pair combos that are ahead of me (as well as a pesky QT, KT, AT combo).
ReplyDeleteConsidering UTG + 1's bet on the flop, I'd be more inclined to put him on a better kicker than me with limited information, but that just shows how much of a nit I am. Nice play.
ReplyDelete@edgie - I agree, which is why I opted to check down. However, by the time the Ace comes on the turn, I can't put him on AT. KT, QT, JT are certainly possible, but given his aggression and then opting to flat the BB shove, I have trouble believing his line here.
ReplyDeleteEssentially, if UTG+1 raises in that spot (BB's shove), I have to fold. The annoying part to the whole hand is that I should be betting the turn or river and I think I would have had a bit of value there... If I put out a turn bet of ~$10-15... I just saw BB & UTG+1 as aggrodonks. However, I was afraid to build a HUGE pot where I was forced into making a hero call on the river. As is, the pot grew pretty big, but I think I can find the call button to a bluff on the river.
