J9s Might be interesting
 

Partay poke 10/20 10-handed.

First hand. A guy returns from being away and posts his big bling and dead sb in MP2. I decide I want to join the party and post in MP3.

Preflop: Folded to Mp2 poster who checks, I raise, co folds, button calls, sb folds, bb calls, mp2 folds.

Flop (8 sb): K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Checked to me, I bet, button folds, BB calls.

Turn (5bb): 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

BB checks, do I bet?

My info on BB is that he's loose, not too aggressive pre, and smeh aggressive post. Probably like 30/6/1.1.

If I do bet and he calls and checks the river, which river cards do you bet/check?

My hand, if it's important to you, is J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

I kind of like the idea of bet/folding the turn and if called firing at a blank river hoping to fold out an A/Q high flush draw.

Re: J9s Might be interesting
 

a bet could work here. He probably has a weak ace, so I don't think that if an ace falls on the river that you can bet that as a scare card. I think though, that you could use a diamond on the river as a good bluff card if he calls the turn, another non ace broadway could work well too. Yea, I like firing a shell on the turn and continue to represent something solid

I would fire two more barrels as long as no A, no [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] falls on the river.

The pots big and you can't win a SD most times. You simply have to bet if you want to win this pot.

Bet seems like spewing because if villain calls (it seems he'll have reason to call on this drawy board) we only have J high on the river. I check and give up.

Re: J9s Might be interesting
 

I hate to be weak, but this seems like a bad spot to try and buy it. Is anyone else worried that the villian is (wrongly) slow-playing a K. I have seen people (not as high as 5/10 but certainly at 3/6) wait to the river to c/r this. Hoping that you will call down with almost anything for fear of a bluff-raise. My point is that your chance of folding out the villian seems small, and it might cost you as much as 2BB to find out.

Results
 

Well, I bet the turn and checked behind on the river. Why? Because I don't know what I'm doing at poker - basically, I'm a vag. I think it's rather obvious that if I'm going to put anymore bets in on the turn, that I'd better do it on the river too.

Anyways, the villain showed K2o ( [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]) and he wins.

Re: J9s Might be interesting
 

I may have checked the turn and re-evaluated on the river.

Depending on the player a raise or fold if bet into and a bluff bet to fold a flush draw if checked to.
