Re: Party $55: turn play
I would probably check the flop and take my free card on the turn.
But... in your situation I would probably raise/push whatever is appropriate. Why would he lead into you with a made boat? I think we need to not be afraid of a boat here and push. And if he does have a boat, you've got an out on the river ;-). haha |

Re: Party $55: turn play
I would not have bet the flop, but based on BB's action he has a J and has not filled up yet. I would push and pray he doesn't outdraw you when he calls.

Re: Party $55: turn play
dude, take your free card on the turn. on the flop someone was no doubt slowplaying the jack. bait him a little bit, but not enough to let him fill up for cheap.

Re: Party $55: turn play
I don't see how his flop and turn action precludes a full house, but I agree that calling sucks and I need to raise. The vast majority of the time he just has trips.
So what's an appropriate amount to raise, and is there a good argument for just shoving the turn because most of my opponents will never find a fold here with a J? |

[/ QUOTE ] agreed, and that amount is.... his entire stack. the odds are pretty good he has Jx. if so, a) he's going to call your push and b) he will not if a 4th diamond hits. if he's full or has a bigger flush, screw it, tough hand. if he has something like A7 or QQ, he's not calling your raise anyway. if he has the A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], he's not going to call a big raise, and you don't want him to call a small raise. push. edit: oh yeah, check the flop. |
