7/8b hand

[fnord_too]

How did I do? Anyone go for the sick value bet on the end? (I think I would have vomitted if I was raised, so I just couldn't pull the trigger.) Should I raise for value on third? (Seems kind of thin, but I could be wrong)

Actually I bet this river because it looks like you have a low hand. You will get paid off if the Jacks has two pair and maybe even if he has bare jacks. If the other low draw came in on the river, he probably wont raise anyway because he will be afraid that you have a better low. I like a bet in this situation.

Absolutely. checking is really weak/tight here; It may cost you half the pot, wheras betting can only cost one bet (okay, maybe two.)

Value bet that mother. their hands are pretty damn dead, if seat 3 made his low, it could be a weak one- give him a chance to fold and you might scoop. Also, Seat 4 will call with hands that you beat much more often than he'll raise- given your board and the action, he really needs a full house to raise for value (it looks like you could easily have made a flush or straight.

i would happily bet the river and call a raise if it came.

Ugh, I hate missing bets like what you all have convinced me is a clear river bet. (Actually, I had a strong suspiscion that I should have been betting there, which is the main reason I posted this.

I scooped this one. (Twas a very happy session for me.)
