Re: Are you NUTS!
1) i raise the turn
2) click 'raise' as many times as you can. |
Re: Are you NUTS!
hand 1 raise the turn
hand 2, just remember that your hand is vurnurable to counterfeiting. EDIT: evan tha great corrected my typo because he's awesome. |
Re: Are you NUTS!
1. He is very unlikely to pay you any more w/o a diamond anyway so there is no reason not to raise the turn.
2. Just hope the board doesn't pair. |
Re: Are you NUTS!
I think calling the flop is fine is the first hand with 3 people still to act. I would be more inclined to raise with a king high flush but I think calling is fine with the ace.

Re: Are you NUTS!
Raising the turn in hand one would be a mistake. Let him keep betting at you and then raise the river.
|
Re: Are you NUTS!
He's not betting the river without a diamond and people don't like folding. Do you see where I'm going?

And if he had a medium-high diamond he might very well lead out on the river again... [ QUOTE ] Just hope the board doesn't pair. [/ QUOTE ] You betcha... |
Re: Are you NUTS!
You really don't believe a T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] or J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] bets this river after you just call the turn? Certainly a K will. I will admit though that most would probably call a turn raise also so you do have a point.

Re: Are you NUTS!
You can't c/r in position. Also, I don't think he's calling without a flush often enough to miss out on a big bet with a turn raise.

Granted PP fish donīt like to fold but this board is one where they will lay down their hands when shown aggression... |
Re: Are you NUTS!
If he folds to your turn raise you very likely didn't lose any bets. I don't think a non dimanond (excpet maybe a set) is calling a river bet.

I'll stand by what I said. If you think he's more likely to put money in on the river w/o the flush and not the turn then I can't really argue any further. |

First you say that PP fish donīt like to fold hands and then you say that they wouldnīt call a single river bet from someone who hasnīt done anything but call all way? doesnīt make sense to me... |
Re: Are you NUTS!
Meh, okay. That was stupid.
Raise the turn though. I'm sticking with that. |
