freecards are yummy
3/6 live fun table
Hero dealed A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] on teh button. 3 limpers, hero raises, BB + 3 call. Flop:J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. check, bet, fold, hero raises, fold, call. Turn: 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] check, check. River: A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] bet, raise, call. I've been cutting back on raising for a freecard but is this uber-standard? |

Re: freecards are yummy
If this is your mentality, you're probably giving the free cards, not getting them.

Re: freecards are yummy
Like I said, I'm weak.
In all honesty, taking free cards is a strategy that I am just getting familiar with (WLLH/SSHE). The way I am understanding, please correct me if I am wrong is to bet/raise the flop with a marginal hand in late position in order to have it checked around to you on the turn, giving you the opportunity for a free river card if needed. |

[/ QUOTE ] that doesn't make any sense if you know what raising for a free card is. You take them every time, meaning you raise when you're last to act hoping to get a free card on the turn? thats not weak tight |

Re: freecards are yummy
I shoulda said that I pick my spots to pull a freebie, but it seems most of my postflop play is marginal at best, so I pull a free card pretty often.

Re: freecards are yummy
Would anyone fold this river to a 3-bet?
