“A passive opponent”
The opponent was a guy I know, very nitty, nothing special at the table. In the final hand I was playing with 60bb against his 10-11bb. Pin 7Χ8Χ on the button and complete, he checked behind from the big blind.
Flop comes AΧ7Χ3Χ with two hearts, I think I always or almost always have the best hand because after he checked behind preflop I don’t put too many Ax in range. Sometimes maybe, since he was a passive opponent, he could have A-2 or A-4 that he wanted to check behind, but very rarely. Anyway he checks, I bet a blind, he raises to two and a half blinds, I call. As for hands that beat me, he could have some seven with a better kicker or some low-frequency aces as I said.
The showdown you don’t expect
Nicola continues the tale which has one of those endings by surprise:
Turn comes 5Χ, he underbets 1.5bb and I play for value again: I can always have the best hand given the draws he could push. The river comes 6Χ and he checks. When he checks I could be good, but not always because at that point I expect that if he has any flush draw combos he would bet to make me fold a lot of stuff.
At that point if he checks and I go to shove I never have a bluff. Knowing that he has the ace at a low frequency I go all-in to make some sevens fold. He snaps and shows 9♣6♣, basically he had a draw and the pair of sixes found on the river was enough for him to snap me, absurd!
