Re: TPTK Turn & River Play: How many bets you want goin\' in?
I think I missed a bet somewhere for sure. Opponent's range on the turn seemed to me to be any high spade, perhaps as part of a pair worse than Queens, or perhaps as a part of a no-pair hand. He might have AK with a spade, for instance, or a hand like 88 with the 8s. Of course in addition to those type of hands he could have two pair, a set, or a made frush. My thinking at the time of the hand was that a made frush is least likely, but I could be wrong about that.
I don't like 3-betting the turn, since getting capped is pretty much death, but I do think bet/fold on the river is essential here. If hero misses bets like this (folding if raised by any non-maniac/known bluffer), he's going to seriously hurt his hourly rate.
