Re: Another Semi-Bluff on the River
[ QUOTE ]
a raise on the river is good for 2 things
1) putting the money in with the best hand and getting called by a worse hand
2) getting the opponent to fold the best hand
which of those are you doing

I was betting on the premise that it was more likely he was on a str8 draw after the flop, rather than a backdoor flush draw. My raise may get him to lay it down if I can sell Ad,Xd, however, not as likely then if he had caught his 2nd pair on the river.
