Strategy #2

This hand was played in the Sunday $30,000 Re-buy on Chico. Hero is on the button with approximately 20x and the villain is in the BB with 40x. We are at level 14 with 4 levels of late registration remaining.

Everyone folds to Hero who min opens with 8c6c. The BB defends, the pot is now 5.47x, and we see a flop two handed. The flop arrives Ts3d2s and villain checks. Hero continues for 1x.

As played the villain calls, the pot is now 7.47x, and the turn comes Kd. The board is now Ts3d2sKd and villain checks. Hero bets 4x.

The river comes 8d, with the board now Ts3d2sKd8d. Villain now goes into the tank and then makes a donk bet for 15x, effectively putting me all-in.
