Default Re: First Hand Post...Thoughts?

this is why I bet the river. You will be called by anyone with a diamond or even a non diamond straight. Only 3 diamonds beat you, the rest you have beat. If you bet and are checkraised you have to call and lose 2BB extra max . If you check and lose you save 1BB. You only need 2 of the opponents in the pot to call with a weaker hand to make this bet correct. I think all 4 will call in a pot this big and if you lose it is not a big deal because the value of betting this river is higher than saving a bet or 2.
