Confidence Boosting -- 10/20 Hand #1

[Schneids]

When I play poker I like playing confidently, and October did a good job of tearing away some confidence so the last few days I have been playing 8-tables of 10/20 6max to regain that necessary swagger, and along with that, analyzing my game more closely. Here is a a checkup hand from those first 3000 hands of playing this game:

6-handed. I raise Ad7d in CO. BB calls.

Flop 8s Ts 9h. BB calls my bet.

Turn Qd. BB checks I check.

River 6s. BB checks I bet BB raises I fold.


Assume no reads for this hand or any hands I post, though I am playing 33/23.5/2.0 style and some opponents may or may not be noticing this.

first: get your confidence back and stay the f away from my tables.

second: call the river.

i hate replying to threads like this but i think the fold is bad.

[wackjob]

fold sucks here.

[Danenania]

I fold in spots like this too. Just based on my experiences with weird slowplays and checkraises, I think calling is a mistake. Rest of the hand plays itself.

[Stefan_K]

i bet this turn and call this river but its close

[Catt]

I call this river in this game absent a read.

[Stefan_K]

no content

but what is this name changing thing about?

Isn't this a bit loose, i've read some old post wich you said that you had similar stats at 10/20 but now considering the 3-rake don't you think that some marginal hands has became -ev. just a thougt
