I think i call here

if the river doesn't help me and I have to call more than 1 bet i may let it go.

Why didn't you raise the turn?

ThePenguin · #4 02-20-2005, 04:55 PM

I think not raising the turn the first time around was atrocious. You should use MP2's bet on the turn as an opportunity to knock UTG out of the pot. In my opinion, you shouldn't be too alarmed by MP2 coming to life. It looks like he's on a draw to me, or a pair, but he would have check-raised if he had made a stronger hand.

As to your question, i think you best call. UTG's check raise is scary, but you can't give your hand up. I think you will have the best hand here often enough to see the river.

Raise the turn.

Yes, the first Turn call was terrible. I knew as soon as I did it. It was either raise or fold

I should have folded becuase I was drawing to 5 or less outs. KT was ahead.

I folded the 2nd time around

River was an A. KT took it down.

Thanx

i disagree. calling was better than folding. (raising was still better).

and the pot is pretty frickin' huge to fold that by the time it makes it back around to you... i don't think you should have considered folding, considering you could discount flushes if you hit your gutshot.

i don't understand... how are you so sure at the turn that villain has KT?... or any 2-pair?...

and you still have odds for the turn call against any 2-pair that doesn't include a K....

JDErickson · #9 02-21-2005, 05:18 AM

I didn't, he showed down KT, SO I either thought I was ahead or behind. I think I should have folded the first time.
