I've recently been really trying to make an attempt to focus on my hand range while playing in an effort to open up my game and PWN more!
Ducks UTG+1 is a bit roose...but the game was pretty nitty and I felt comfortable opening with them at this table.
The frop comes down SUPER wet and I was faced with a decision as to whether I should c bet into 3 other players. While I don't LOVE my cbet here, I felt like because of my position...I would be able to rep a tighter range with my c bet, I opened in EP and I led into 3 people. Unfortunately I only get 2 folds, and we head to the turn HU. At this point I think we can eliminate certain hands from his range - set's and 2 pairs...the villain is a regular TAG and when someone UTG+1 opens and then makes a cbet...you are OFTEN going to raise that frop in position hoping he has an Ax hand that you pwn.
The turn is a blank and I decided to check - I will probably mix up my turn decisions with my monsters - betting maybe 60% time and checking 40% of the time. When the villain x's the turn back its very clear that he has either a club draw or some type of Ax hand.
The river completes JTcc, but I'm not that worried about that hand bc I feel that he would of either raised the frop or bet the turn with that hand. I decide to check again...and the villain bets out. I debating calling because I beat his busted draws but chose to XRAI instead in the event that he was value betting an A. I felt that my range in the situation crushed his and thus I would get folds often enough for it to be profitable.
6th pair FTW!

Nice hand!
Wouldn't he be called the "virrian"??
I love it. A nice play vs. an opponent able to see past their own cards.

correct, he is a virrain...ROR.
being able to turn yer hand into a bluff on the river def has quite a bit of value given the right circumstances. i was talking to brue about how i would NOT have been able to turn KK into a river bluff...but essentially my hand value (22 or KK) vs his river xr calling range is the same.

River XR is awesome. But a fish would call me with 33
