Default Re: Call the flop, fold the turn: Thumbs DOWN!

In your first situation that's not what I'm really refering to. Your play there is fine. I was more refering to you having bottom pair with an overcard kicker, you checking in a blind on the flop, an EP betting and there being several callers to you. In that case calling with the intention of check folding the turn is probably OK.

In the 2nd situation, when, say, I am in the BB and a tight old man as I described open raises in EP, I will call with a wide variety of hands, and should probably go down to almost every hand. You are at insane advantage against this opponent if he plays as described, especially since you can be almost certain that he will not call on the river with ace high ever. In fact I think ever folding here is probably incorrect. But I'd have to crunch numbers and I already got started on the Corona. [img]/forums/images/icons/smirk.gif[/img]
