eviljeff ...

I'm thinking b/f &gt; c/c &gt; b/c &gt; c/f. word?

Re: not a great river card
 

Hmmm B/C &gt; B/F and there are no other options here so we won't include them because you NEED to bet this river. 9.5-1 with tptk on the river without a read is good enough for me.

agreed, against some i might fold, read dependent though.

PS, you no longer have to add on the -Mike manually.

Re: not a great river card
 

This may be incorrect in that I have not played this limit at this site, but I think you can lay it down if you are raised. Low limit players very rarely raise the river without you beat with this scary of a board when you raised preflop from UTG and bet every street.

Re: not a great river card
 

yeah you have to bet this river and i think that with top pair top kicker you probably can call a raise too. however, i haven't played 1/2 so maybe the opponents are tight enough to fold to a river raise. at short handed games though at 3/6 where i play i definately call this river raise from an unknown if nothing else to get a line on him.

Re: not a great river card
 

You'll be good 1 in 9.5 times if raised, so I'd B/C. There are a lot of lunatics running around at 1/2, so don't make a habit of folding TPTK. C/C is giving up too much value, and you can't afford to play meekly in the short games.

bet.

on a related poker note, Pokeroom will eat your bankroll alive with the rake they take from their low limit games. You should only clear bonuses there and at their skins.

you can find this information in the "internet/bonuses" forum.
