Default i took too many varieties

standard one. just a question of if unknowns bluff here, in the 15/30 this was a pretty standard call because they made these stupid bluffs with T,x here. but in the 30/60?

strokes?

are you considering folding? pretty clear call imo. You have to be good more than one in ten.

Let's put it this way. If you only call this bet when you have a flush, players will notice and start taking away pots from you. This is bad.

That doesn't mean you throw away your money on hopeless calls of course. But in this case, he can be bluffing a missed straight draw. He can be betting a weak J for value. He could be doing the "if I'm going to call, I might as well bet" move with a ten. You're good here often enough to call.

Good luck.
Eric

does this mean that a typical 15/30 player who bets Tx here on the river is trying to bluff you off a better hand? this can't possibly be right

I see a T with a good kicker betting this river, and not as a bluff.

Definite call.
