Re: 99, river raise
[ QUOTE ]
He's a donk and he donked the T on the turn. Which hands does this lead you to put him on??

i was apparently way off on this one... i was thinking something like a T, 8, 3, maybe 2, 45, J9, A4, J7, air...

If the range includes a fair number of worse hands which will call down unimproved, then why not raise the turn??
[/ QUOTE ]
i was thinking his range also included a fair number that wouldn't call down unimproved. so by not raising the turn i get another bet if he has air, and i lose less if a bad river card comes and he rivers me. he's often firing on the river with a draw, i'll get 2 bets if he misses anyway.

If the range is mainly straight draws and T's, then why raise the river??

the range also included smaller pairs and ace highs. the river card was great, no draws hit, the chances of him having a T are slightly lower. now i've already gotten 2 bets out of him if he had a draw or air, so what if i don't get to see his hand? him folding tells me enough. if he does have a hand he was calling down unimproved with from the turn though, i get that extra bet now.
so i guess i chose this line because i though the range was an even mixture of hands that were calling UI and ones that weren't. i was just calling down most river cards, but that one was good enough for me to want to put in a raise. maybe i'm way off on this one.
