Awkward HU S8 hand.

Anti-Hero will get pretty aggro with only a decent low made, this feels awkward though, how's it look?

You've got to bet 5th.

dibbs · #3 10-01-2005, 04:16 AM

I froze up there because I didn't think he could possibly raise me with only a 4 low,and thought he might have double paired, as he usually will NOT bet without a made low, in retrospect though it's stupid because that's a great blank card for me.

So Bet fifth, check call 6th and 7th?

Thanks.

Why not, he's a favorite? Yep, bet fifth, check call 6th and seventh.

Edit: Oh, you probably meant based on your read he wouldn't. My mistake.

Third, fine. Fourth, I would chicken-call against a decent opponent. Absolutely bet fifth. Probably chicken-call sixth and definitely chicken-call the river.

Alchemist · #6 10-01-2005, 02:10 PM

Just for my own clarification in this situation which comes up a lot: Is 6th street also a must-bet in case villain hasn't made his low? And in case he calls, check the river?

Pretty much.

Andy B · #8 10-01-2005, 02:49 PM

I wouldn't say that sixth is a must-bet at all. Giving the free card is only disastrous if the other guy will fold to a bet, and no one folds a four-card low on sixth street against a guy who can't make a low if there is any money at all in the pot.

You can only chicken-call the river unless you fill.

Notorious G.O.B. · #9 10-01-2005, 07:50 PM

We're not betting for protection, but we've got a sizable edge on sixth, I don't really see why we'd check.

dibbs · #10 10-02-2005, 12:32 AM

Do you play third the same?

This game was actually somewhat sane with a few donators, there was a high chance I'd get it headsup or 3 handed.
