PAD - Gus and the Ladies

[Kurn]

Blinds 150/300

Beth Shak(25,000) limps UTG +1 with KT folded to Vanessa (~14,000 IIRC) on the SB A7, JJ checks A4o. (900)

Flop Q J x (Bad memory, but it was a rag)

VR bets 700 , BS raises to 3300.

OK, so far nothing is completely out of line here, but IMO the raise is iffy, but now it gets very bad.

VR reraises all in. OK, this is horrible IMO. The good players at the table have been treating Shak like an amateur. Their reaction to her bets, raises, checks have been to assume she is playing fairly ABC poker*. How can VR risk her tournament life on a draw vs someone who probably can't fold TP here? But it gets worse.

BS calls. Turn is no help to either, river is another Q and VR doubles up. Hee Haw.

* - an example from a previous hand. Clonie raises on the button with J J. BS calls from the SB with A T. Flop comes 4 6 K. BS bets, Clonie insta-folds. Her obvious read is BS is playing ABC, the bet is either a K or a better .

I've been fairly impressed with Clonie's play so far.
