Re: How bad was this play?
You do realize this is an extremely draw-heavy board, right? I don't like giving free cards.
FWIW, I would only attempt this check-raise if villain was very aggressive and guaranteed to bet any draw or any pair. Most villains will check behind most hands you beat (Kx being the possible exception). I guess another time is if villain is apt to call with nothing on the flop and try to take it away from you on the turn. But this is rarely the case at these limits. Hope he didn't show you 89o. Garland P.S. I voted for bad play only because the worst play ever would be to open fold your hand on the turn [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. |

The way hero played it, he knew was going with it. If villain has a better hand with 100xbb, then so be it he's most likely going to double villain up. No need to help villain out by potentially letting him catch up on the river. Garland |

Re: How bad was this play?
So the river is a queen, jack, ten, nine, or diamond, and you just happily push in another $110 while he folds all the hands that missed? Or you check and call against all the hands that hit and let him check behind with the rest?

If hero bets pot here, it should be $186 in the pot with $112 left to go for villain. I would pay him off if he hit. Do whatever's necessary to prevent yourself from being bluffed out on the river if that's a worry. Overbet the pot on the turn by betting $70ish. Makes the river a commitment thing if it wasn't obvious already. Garland |
