Default Re: I\'m lost

He bets the flop or raises the turn with every hand thats beating you. A lpp is never raising the turn with a worse hand. If you check the turn and call the river, you lose the same amount as when you bet/fold the turn. If you are ahead, you gain the most from bet/bet. This makes your best line fairly obvious.

The only way this line is not best is if he will wait till the river to raise you as often as you are ahead here. Lets say you are ahead 40%, this means he has to wait to the river to raise (or not raise at all) 40% of the time for it not to matter what you do. This of course ignores the fact that he might bluff raise you, so you need slightly higher percent on the first number, but I think the chances of a bluff raise are small here.
