A tough(?) river value bet for sfer.

I would just like to say I'm loving these posts. I think there should be a contest for thinnest value-bet and the winner gets a t-shirt.

Me likey. He's calling with any pair and the Ace is just one of those pairs he could have.

Honestly, I'm looking through all my hands and I have a lot of room for improvement in my value betting.

This one is okay, but when I'm on my game I can make value bets like this with ease:

BB is LAG. Other player is semi-fish(30/11/1.3 over 1500 hands).

I suck. I wouldn't have bet the river.

Luv2DriveTT · #9 08-19-2005, 11:25 PM

wow... now THATS a good value bet. Excellent. This is very different from Sfer's post, I think his was an excellent river bet but it wasn't for value.
