No change sense turn so i bet,but then thought who will call? less than 77,what is the chance that they are in here.
Although sometimes when it is checked tru on the flop and turn and someone bets the riv some will call with crap as thay suspect a bluff.Hmmmm

How to play this? I think maybe i shoulda bet the turn,i think now that betting the riv was wrong,maybe i don't know [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I would have bet the turn, and i think your river bet is fine as well. I think its a value bet. I would have expected a bet from someone else if they spiked a pair on the turn or river.

I doubt I would have bet on the flop, but i'd like to see what someone with more experience would do.

These hands are my biggest weakness I think, I'd love to see more feedback. I bet that turn because I now have a flush draw. Right? j-9, big lick? nahhh

[Noodles]

yes i definetly think i shouldve bet the turn,maybe riv was a slight value bet,
any more opinions on these type of situations?

Bet the turn fer sure.

I bet the turn for 2 reasons - 1. you may have the best hand on the turn ( no one has shown any interest in it )

2. You now have a flush draw, so if you trail ( a big if - see 1 ) you have the ability to draw out on them.

I think you have to bet the flop here sometimes. The flop is very ragged with no draws, and you may very well be ahead. You may or may not win right away, but you will fold some guys and get them out.
