Are you thinking about bluffraising? I doubt it will work, your hand does not look like a straight or full house IMO.

Re: A3s (Feat. Busted Flush Draw)
 

which hero are you? the 200$ or the 91$? i wouldn't even consider reraising here. MP1's bet on the flop may have been weak but that's a river pot bet...if anything else you should have raised his flop then 2/3rd the turn.

whos got the busted draw, you or him? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

if youre feeling frisky, check-raise, but i think youre probably actually ahead of most draws he could have (K-high flush, any hand with a 9, etc.)

do you think you could possibly fold out a J with a check-raise? i dont

Re: A3s (Feat. Busted Flush Draw)
 

Just fold

Board + action is too innocent for that.

Re: A3s (Feat. Busted Flush Draw)
 

The fact that he led out on the flop would keep me from bluff-raising here. The bet size on the river is fishy but I think he has a jack often enough here to make folding OK. You have any reads on him?

Re: A3s (Feat. Busted Flush Draw)
 

I think a minbet is terribly weak, especially after limping preflop and being checked to by the blinds. It's usually a weak hand, IMO. Usually.

Re: A3s (Feat. Busted Flush Draw)
 

anytime you c/r the river and he folds you were probably ahead anyways so I don't see why you would do that. i would probably just fold...heroic calls in $200 NL rarely work out, let them do that when you have a good hand.

The more I think about it, i lead or check/raise this flop something like 100% of the time. Too aggro?
