The Tricky River
What hands are pushing all-in for value here?
I feel like there are many draws and maybe a Jack that would try and throw me off here. PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (5 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx Hero ($35.30) Button ($89.55) SB ($57.30) BB ($88.20) UTG ($46.45) Preflop: Hero is MP with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. [color=#666666]1 fold</font>, [color=#CC3333]Hero raises to $2</font>, Button calls $2, [color=#666666]2 folds</font>. Flop: ($4.75) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] [color=#0000FF](2 players)</font> [color=#CC3333]Hero bets $4</font>, Button calls $4. Turn: ($12.75) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] [color=#0000FF](2 players)</font> [color=#CC3333]Hero bets $9</font>, Button calls $9.

Re: The Tricky River
This exact scenario is the bane of my existence at 50 and 100 NL right now. I find myself in this situation far too often and i feel like i always make the wrong play. after the flop gets called, everything else feels like betting in the dark when you are OOP. totally sucks.
you are right to wonder what the hell this guy is betting here. it could very well be a draw of some sort with a river bluff trying to mug you. I dont know. i find my mind usually racing at the river and thinking "its happening again". cliche, but this is probably largely read dependent.

[/ QUOTE ] well, I'm not sure - i played about 10-15k of nl 100 6max recently and made like 1,500 but i then lost most of it when i moved up to the 200nl 6max maybe i was playing too rockish - but when i reviewed most of my hands over the break i thought i came to the conclusion that making raises w/ these marginal aces , suited or not, say A7-AJ, I tend to get in trouble maybe you're right - i guess i'm not one to say

Re: The Tricky River
yeah im definitely raising this here when folded to but damn am i annoyed when the button steals my position.
what about a blocking bet on the river or is this completely wrong time for that? wondering because in this situation, a check just screams for a huge positional bet to steal the pot with a missed draw.

You need to be good 28% of the time or more to show profit. I'd probably fold, but that might be too tight. I just can't pick out enough hands villain would call down all the way and then would bet on the end that we beat (9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] maybe).

check turn and hope you hit a straight [/ QUOTE ] Seems slightly weak OOP doesn't it. Villain will make a PSB with almost anything because you've waved the white flag. If hero had position, I completely agree.
