No reads on SB. What do you think of this, on all (except for preflop) streets?

My gut feeling is that he raised in order to get a free card on the turn should he miss his flush. Which he did.

When he calls your river bet it confuses me pretty bad. Did he have A9?

I think you have hero and villian confused?

Does anyone just call here and see what opponent does on a club/non club turn?

DoomSlice · #5 02-27-2005, 02:52 PM

No, he either has a club draw that you want him to pay for, a made flush that you want to figure out if he has, or he is afraid of a flush and is not putting much more in anyway.

Raise 'er up!

On the flop, you raised with your 2-pair. Question is, what did you put villain on after your raise? I think you put him on something like AQ, AT, or semibluff with K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]X, otherwise you would have folded. I think that if this was your read, you should have bet $50 at the turn. If you are called, then most likely you will showdown for free.

By checking the turn, you are showing weakness, possibly causing villain to put you on a semibluff flush draw. What would you have done if villain had bet $100 on the river instead of $50?

Looks like he has the K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. You're actually giving him odds sort of with your re-raise, becuase its $30 to him in a $50 pot.

Unless vilian is pretty tricky, this looks like a classic missed draw bluff.
