I'm fairly new to HU but I played this guy before and he was soo tilting and annoyed and gone to a river (about 600chips pot) with A high.

Yea since he is kinda tight from previous hands...I want him to think I have a better hand, and yea the min raise was bad I should have raised 360 I guess



Because I am sure he doesn't have the J i put him on a 5 or 2, I wanted him to think I have a J pair or set or even a KK, AA or QQ as a bluff.Thats all I guess I had lots and lots of luck

And yea when he hit the turn with a 30 bet, I said he doesnt have a J and was certain
Quote : 30 ?? thats not a J indeed,

I don't mind too much the way you played it, although I stay away from the min raises myself. I DO mind, however, the WHY you played it as you did.

Based on your analysis you should folded to his flop bet. I'm not sure though how you put him on top 2 pair with the action so far - his pot size bet could mean a lot of things. Based on you "read" raising here was terrible as you're drawing thin (possibly very thin).

The turn completes 2 straight draws. His min bet now means he doesn't have J, but now has a pair and a straight draw (which is still WAY ahead of you) and you're drawing to 10 outs (3 of which complete another straight draw that doesn't help you). I'm not sure why you think he's going to fold that...

I'm a big fan of having a plan for a hand and executing the plan, making adjustments as required. From that standpoint if you hadn't included your thoughts I'd be more OK with the way you played it. It looks like you had a plan to push him off a weak hand and followed through with it.

As described though I have more issues with your thoughts than your actions.

I guess lots of you got me wrong.

Heres what happens:
1 - I raise from button he calls < I put him on anything less than a premium hand coz he will be reraising>
2 - Bad flop for me but I have postion < He bets nearly pot I know if he has a J probably its a J with high kicker Impossible coz he would have reraise me from past actions I concluded from him, Its more likely 2 pairs or something with a J in it since he is betting hard then he called my min raise >
3 - Now a helpin card for me came I still have position < He bets 30 so he was bluffing me off and there isn't 2 pairs or even a J in his hand and he doesnt have the lead on this now > So I continue my bluff looking my draw pretty much I was DONKing if I didnt want him to fold.
4 - Now I drew The best hand so I put him all in with that much chips he contributed before he will call that indeed unless he had a very low hand.

Pretty much a Donkey Draw but I guess not bad read.I was pushing him because he knew I was playing tight and my 99 lost to his AJ like 8 hands before this one.So I decided to fire off.
