Re: I see donkeys
Easy call on river. Lose less when behind, gain more when ahead.
Looks like SB flopped set with JJ or TT (maybe has KQs?). Prob checked turn looking to check raise again.
Button's play seems...

Re: Why do I do this?
If this guy isn't a raising machine with draws, you might consider betting turn after calling flop. This will let you see where you are. In most cases, you can fold to a raise (again, assuming you...

Re: Blind steal gone dumb
If villian will call your 3-bet on a dry board, what makes you think he'll fold on the turn? Seems like he's the type that will call almost any raise. Folding here will probably be best in most...

Re: T9s play along
You're in bad position, your hand might not be best, and your hand, if best at this point, is very vulnerable. I like checking to see what the action is. If it goes villian bets, x number calls,...

Re: 10/20 TT
Going for a showdown raise on turn is bad since jason said that villian capped flop and TURN with JJ. We don't know what he could 3-bet here on the turn with.

Re: Turn raise for free SD
I raised because:
(1) I could be ahead, so the raise is for value, and to charge him for a draw.
(2) I'm behind to an ace, but villian could have raised pf with Axs, and donkbet this turn with...

Re: Overpair against agression
Part of the reason I don't like a turn 3-bet is that I don't want to get capped. Most of the time, I'll get capped by a set of jacks, but occassionally by a flush draw. Therefore, I don't think I can...

Overpair against agression
Villian is 14.5/7/2.4 (over 3k hands).
What range of hands do we put villian on?
Anyone like 3-betting the turn?
How about check-calling or check-raising the river?
