I DEFINITELY agree with betting if he catches any non-picture card though.

Say he catches a jack and it goes check-check on 6th. Are you paying off a river bet unimproved every time?

You don't seem to worried about the opponent having started with a wheel draw, but I think it is equally or more likely that a player would just limp with a wheel draw than with 3 broadway card (with which I think more people raise correctly). Wheel draws seem to come up for me a lot shorthanded, has anyone else noticed this?

Yes, I would be forced to call a bet on the river after checking 6th because the 6th st. show of weakness will often induce a bluff. However, if I bet 6th, I would fold a decent amount of the time on the river if I got bet into.

Also, I am probably folding 6th (one of the few times I ever would) if my opponent bets into me again and I haven't improved (unless they caught a card suited to the Ace because then there is an okay chance that they just have a 4 flush).

Regards,
Carlos
