Re: 2nd J hits river,advice needed
Think you should have raised the flop, and then checked behind if your K didn't come. As it played out, I'd call the river but expect to lose. Either that or raise and fold to a three-bet, but that seems like horrible advice.

[/ QUOTE ] Hero calls expecting to lose. Take out the rake and you're getting roughly 8:1 on your call. IMHO you'll be good here often enough to show a profit, since 2/4 players in general and Pacific players in particular are capable of betting with all manner of strange holdings.

Re: 2nd J hits river,advice needed
thanks for the advice guys, was on the verge of folding despite the 1:8, but as Drew mentioned it's pacific... called,he showed 99.
raise the flop for a free card or just thinking i'm still good?

[/ QUOTE ] Just call. Keeps him bluffing a missed hand. Free card plays can often just end up being more expensive then just calling down.

Re: 2nd J hits river,advice needed
you have to keep the lead on flop IMHO, calling is just too passive and puts you in a rough spot later... could be used for several purposes...
1.) free card on turn certainly wouldnt hurt 2.) possibility of having him drop the hand to a turn bet even if a blank hits (likely given the hand he had, but unlikely from any player with a jack and an undercard on turn) 3.) defining his hand... if he 3 bets you, you have a much clearer picture of where youre at in the hand... any way i see it... reraising flop against this type of player is the correct play... mainly for the free card, but if you've seen a lack of stubborness in him with mediocre hands, odds are he'll drop on turn...

[/ QUOTE ] Well, I guess he could open fold before you check for your free card. I'm just being snarky. Welcome to the forum. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
