Value Checking My Nutz
Perhaps the worst turn check of all time? We'll see...
˝ NL Home game. Villain is rather LAG. Earlier I doubled him up pushing with AJ on board of 6266 when he called with 92x. Also earlier I made a 2/3 pot value bet on the river after hitting quads which got many oohs and ahhhs so that was a consideration, too.
Villain has $250, I have $400.
I have qj spades in the CO, two limpers (incld. Villain). I raise to 10. BB, both limpers call.
Flop 9sTs3x. Checked to me. Bet 25. Villain calls.
Turn: Ks. V says “Ooooh you flushed up huh?” checks. I………?
So I check. I know. But I really put him on a lone 10 or 9 here. My best hope is 2pair.
River: Qx
He checks again…
I……..
I would love him to have JT but that seems unlikely. 9T maybe but more likely A9 or AT. Push and pray? Pot? ˝ pot? I don’t even want to tell you what I really did (hint: I didn’t exactly check).
