Default Re: Post your best expert play!

Yes, I got you on the don't-use-same-line-against-thinking-player-every-time.

But I don't aggree that it's good mixing up the check behind turn with TPTK with a line you would take with a monster.. You can't stack a guy if you keep the pot small... With one pair you want a medium pot, with a monster you don't. I think it is better to bet more frequently on the turn (with lesser hands) than to check monsters (this is the principle behind LAG play and is what makes them get paid off. I.e a LAG would never check behind a monster..). The guy I was playing against would have to be a complete nit if I should check behind with a monster

edit: Btw, your monster line is not consistent with your TPTK line because you would never raise the river with that.. Also a river raise after a turn checkbehind screems strengt and I dont't think one pair is paying that of more often than a turn + river bet
