No you're not a fool. Good fold on the river. Does anyone fold to the turn minreraise? I'm not sure whether or not to call that.

I have a flush draw there how could I fold the turn for that tiny a bet?

stu-unger · #4 08-24-2005, 01:06 AM

why did u choose to raise the turn? i think i call the flop and call the turn and check/fold the river 'cause im a supa' nit. if i was in your shoes and i decided to bluff the river (which i dont think is a good idea) i bet more than 1/4 pot.

I dont really see my river bet as a bluff I have the 2nd nut do you see my straight?

I think if you're going to bet the river, you have to bet more than $5. Bet at least $10, and I think you can fold safely to a check-push.

stu-unger · #8 08-24-2005, 01:35 AM

whoah good thing im not playin right now. no i didnt see the str8. i think either way my advice is still relevant. u need to bet like 10-17 on this river then u can think about a fold. with the funny turn action and the c/r all in on the river i think u made a good fold but if u want to bet 5 just check behind.

I call here without a read. Partly because your river bet look like you dont have anything special. My hat off if he got KQ.
Difficult to say anything without any info on villain.

Why didn't you push on the turn? Why didn't you bet more on the river?

I call here.

Edit: I'm probably raising that weak-ass flop bet to pot size as well.
