View Full Version : Top pair OOP vs. 4 to a flush on board at the river = bet / fold?

This river sucked. Villain is pretty loose through one orbit, and is kind of getting teased by the others at the table. So I'm assuming he's not so hot.

Does Clarkmeister's theorem suggest (along, of course, with my top pair) I bet / fold this river? Or is a check / call a better approach?

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Preflop: Superman is BB with K/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 4/images/graemlins/club.gif.
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, MP3 calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB completes, Superman checks.

Flop: (5 SB) K/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 2/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Superman bets</font>, MP1 calls, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, SB folds.

Turn: (3.50 BB) 3/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Superman bets</font>, MP1 calls.

River: (5.50 BB) T/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Superman ???

All requirements for Clarks theorem met.
1. HU out of postion
2. Fourth flush card on river

Guess you have to bet/fold then.

EDIT: The question is: Wouldn't a sucker take a shot by bluff raise the river pretty frequently? Couldn't that make check/call better?
