Default Re: TPTK raised on river

[ QUOTE ]
i think "fallacy" is harsh

You're right, and I wasn't trying to imply that what you said was a fallacy, moreso what I believed and had been following for quite some time was a fallacy...basically that it's okay to not fold TPTK on the river HU to a raise.

for me it all comes down to having a read or perhaps more particularly knowing your chook

You're right - and you said in a previous post that there are some players that you would fold this against...it's important for those reading the forum to recognize that this isn't carte blanche to call down TP to a river raise, we stil have to play poker and analyze the odds the pot is laying us, the likelihood of him having a worse hand, and the likelihood of a bluff(can he make it this far with a bluffing hand? how? why would he think a bluff would work? If we've folded to river raises previously we should call. If we've 3bet the nuts 2 rivers in a row we should consider folding.)
