Re: River Dilemma...
At the limits I play (.05/.10 and .25/.50), river raises (in fact, most raises) are what they seem to be. And yet, I still call them down because I think even pairing his ace might wake him up enough to raise (again, at my limits it doesn't take much to excite us).
Dang, it's a really small pot to make a crying call over but I know I would do it. Even though this post takes me to "journeyman" status, I know that I'm still a newbie [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] |

Re: River Dilemma...
i'm more tempted to 3-bet than simply call, but against an unknown, calling is probably best, but i ain't folding for sure.
you should raise preflop and get it HU against a lone posting limper. you might win it right there. |

Re: River Dilemma...
I think you're good here most of the time, actually. He doesn't know you have his Ax reverse dominated. A 4 beats you, but I like a 3-bet here.
Edit: Wow, I'm an enthusiast! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] |

Re: River Dilemma...
I want to call this. But as for you being good 1 in 8, I don't know. This could be an Ace with good kicker, bluff raise, slowplayed 3, lucky 4 or worse two pair. ugh, so many hands.
