Default Re: the wrong time for pot control?

By betting your going to find out where you are if one of them makes a large check raise on the turn, and if either or both are on a draw your making them pay to see the next card. BB Could have J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] or slowing playing a floped full house with 88. Depending on how much u raised pre flop and how much each of u had in ur stack would determine if he hand could be as weak as J9s. If SB if the sucker at the table he might be calling with any thing. The big problem with betting is with something like 1500 in the pot you have to risk too much to make a decent sized wager. If you bet 750 and either player moved all in you would, as you so elequiently put it throw up. If either called then check to you with the best hand you got to see it for cheap and if they had a worse hand you got more value with the best hand. If a scare card hits the river and they bet you have an easy lay down. Betting the right amount would be key 750 is investing alot into a hand that you might have to lay down maybe 550, 600, or 650. Just my thoughts what do u sharks think?[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
