Followed by my secondary question...if I raise, can I get called by a worse hand on the river? Am I just beat the whole way? I'm trying to get my aggression back down to proper levels now that I am back in Vegas after my Cali roadie.
6-12 at the Mirage, loose for a day game, but not ridiculous.
2 MP limpers to me on the button, I raise (for value!) with KhKd, SB mucks, BB calls.
Flop: 10h 6h 4d
Checked to me, I bet, BB and MP2 call.
Turn: [10h 6h 4d] Jh
3 flush. Still not too scary and I have a redraw if behind. BB checks and MP2 (unknown player) bets(!). I usually would raise here without hesitation, but because I am trying to calm down after the Commerce adrenaline fest, I just call. BB mucks.
River: [10h 6h 4d Jh] Ks
OK, I'm tripped up. MP2 bets again (!) and I call, thinking that I can't be called by a worse hand if I raise, and that if I was too pussified to raise the turn, then how in the world can I raise when he bets again. I sure don't want to be 3bet this late in the hand.
