Why in God's name did you bet that river?

Whats up with the small bet on the river? A feeble attempt of a blocker I presume?

I really don't understand river.

there is no need to block when you ahve the check behind option.

is that 15 extra really that important to you?

river is really really bad.

Yup - check river. Or value bet for real so that you get a call from a K. I think it's a fine value bet. But don't bet so small.

cause I thought I was ahead and that was the most I could get from him if he had a king, could also induce a bluff. I really don't think a standard player checks this river with quads/boat

Jocke_F · #7 09-21-2005, 04:55 PM

well it was a combined value/induce bluff bet, not sure if he really had it in him to call more with a king when board is double paired and 3 to a flush

Check behind like everyone else said...including you. I fold to the raise...but I wouldn't put myself in that spot as it is.

I find checking this river very weak, I seriously have no reason to belive I am behind here

Turn bet is awful.
You should bet the turn big. Then check behind the river.
As played you call at the end is hopeless.
Checkraising bluff on this river is quite ballsy and not many players would try it. Just fold.
