    Default Making a move

    Ok, so history between Villain and me is over a 100 hands or so. He keeps bitching about how bad at poker I am. He loves to raise the button but not every time. I figured now would be a time to make a move against him to tilt him or just let it go if he gets too aggressive or if I don't hit anything big.

    FTR Hand History Converter Output (intended for copying and pasting into poker forums!):
    Absolute/UB Cereus No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (3 handed) - Absolute/UB Cereus Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    Button ($25.47)
    Hero (SB) ($29.55)
    BB ($12.22)

    Preflop: Hero is SB with 3, 6
    Button bets $0.85, Hero calls $0.75, 1 fold

    Flop: ($1.95) Q, 6, 9 (2 players)
    Hero checks, Button checks

    Turn: ($1.95) 6 (2 players)
    Hero checks, Button checks

    River: ($1.95) 2 (2 players)
    Hero bets $1.95, Button raises to $7.80, Hero calls $5.85

    Total pot: $17.55 | Rake: $0.87

    I guess I don't understand your reasoning here or what you are trying to accomplish. The guy is complaining that you are a bad player and you decide to prove him right???

    If you want to make a move why didnt you 3bet pre and take control of the hand. As to the way the hand played out why didn't you 3bet shove the river you are so ahead of his range here and he will call with loads worse

    You shouldn't be playing at that level.

    Haha this isn't making a move, this is calling out of position with trash and playing passively postflop.

    Dude wtf. If you are going to play it like this you have to overshove his 3bet on the river.

    If you are choosing to defend against this guy (which I dont recommend after only 100 hands) you should pick better hands to do it with. Dont pick this garbage.
    Lots of good rakeback options at http://www.rakeguard.com/?raf=KRE8R

    KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.

    semantics, it's only a river raise, if hero reraised that'd be a 3bet.
