Getting 78:1 i would probably call.

Looks like you saved yourself a quarter!

I don't think I'm betting that turn...

Re: Folding in a big pot when you know you\'re beat :P
 

Wow.

Fold preflop. Well, ok, it's 6max, so i guess you can call, but cold calling 2.5 with 6 high is scary. I don't think you hit a big draw often enough to make it worth it.

Flop is interesting, but i think it's good.

Leading the turn doesn't gain you anything. Just check/call.

This river case is amusing, but even if CO was bluffing the entire time (which happens less than 1/80 times), you're not even beating a bluff. Nice laydown [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

not oesd---only a 4 gives you a straight.

Bad call pf, not as bad bet on the turn, otherwise fine

edit: you meant on the turn. i'm an idiot.

Because you can't beat anything, including a bluff (you have 6 high, in order to win you would need for him to have a hand consisting of 2s, 4s, or 5s, but no pocket pair of course).

If he holds a 6 you chop.

All other hands you lose.

AKA - he probably has nothing and still has you beat.
