interesting hand

Had an interesting hand come up at the local casino yesterday, 1/2 NLHE, I was NOT involved in the hand.

4th hand of the session, 1st table, no reads on the 2 players involved, altho both seemed familiar with the dealer.

Both players had roughly $200 starting stacks to begin the hand. Hand was limped to the button(V1) (7 players at the table, 2 limpers to the button) who puts in a raise to $12. 3 callers, including BB(V2) and 2 limpers.

Pot is $45 after $4 rake.

Flop is 3d-4d-6c.

V2 bets $15. 2 limpers fold, V1 calls.

Pot is $75.

Turn is 6d.

V2 bets $15. V1 min-raises to $30. V2 raises to $80. V1 shoves. V2 snap-calls.

Thoughts on hands for each player?? I guessed V2's hand but was wrong about V1.

could be a widish range.

i will take a crazy stab and go high with V2 having 44 and V1 having 66.

though to be honest I am having a hard time finding a range for V1 that raises preflop, would smooth call such a draw heavy flop and then make a "I have the nuts kinda min raise and 4bet shove on the turn". V1's play is very odd.

honestly, I really have no clue what V1 has. his hand makes no sense.

I see these kinds of hands all the time at local joints. I am guessing V1 has either A2s or small pair that made a set on the flop. V2 likely had A2 of diamonds given the snap or 66.

I suspect V1 would have been happy taking the pot pre-flop with a $12 raise, got lucky with the flop but cost him his stack. I look forward to the reults.

In the ideal world. V1 had 75 diamonds, and V2 had 66 for the bad beat. But my guess is some sort of boat for V2, 33 or 44. V1 had a flush, AJ+, or something with a redraw like 6x5d or Ad6x, or Ad5d.

My guess is that V1 has an ace high flush....likely AK-AJ of diamonds.

V2 likely flopped a set and has a boat or quads.

I'm thinking V1 has Ace high flush. V2 quad 6s. But I'm fairly certain I have V1's hand wrong

V2 had 4-4 and V1 had AdJd. V2's bets told me had hit the flop good and the turn even better. Looking forward to the answer.

V1 had 6-3.....flopped 2 pair, turned boat.

v2, as I kinda suspected, had 5d-7d, for the flopped straight and turned straight flush.....talk about a money card, making both their hands, and allowing both to get all their money in.

I thought V1 had the A-high flush personally.....apparently he was getting frisky on the button with his pre-flop raise and it cost him. He turned out to be pretty aggressive in position, altho not always with the best hands.

I can picture a couple of different scenarios:

1.) They both have flush draws with V2 having something like 7d8d and V1 having a big Ace both diamonds or possibly suited connectors Jd10d - KdQd.

V2 puts in the $15 as a kind blocker bet that he'll hope V2 will just call instead, it also helps disguise the draw. V2s thought process is if he checks he might have to face a potential bet from V1 that won't give him pot odds to call. When the turn is another diamond he donk bets another $15 expecting to push the river or get a chance to 3 bet after a raise from V1 on the turn.

2.) V2 has a pocket pair of 3s or 4s and V2 has the same type of hand from scenario 1.

V2 bets small on the pot feeling well ahead and to see if he can get a call. After getting the call he has to put his villain on a flush draw or two big overs, with overs and a flush draw being the most likely holding. V2 basically hits his dream card 6d. With his boat he donk bets $15 and prays that his villain hit his flush. His prayers seem to be answered when the villain min raises his turn bet.

Damn would of never guessed that a guy that appears to be a local at a locals casino would be raising 6-3.
