5/10 Hand (Boring Title; Interesting Hand)
Hey all,
I really don't get to play much anymore, thus the lack of recent hand posts, but here is a hand that one of my students played that I think is fairly interesting. 5/10 6-max online. Hero is new to the site; thus, nobody has any reads on each other. Hero has been playing for a few orbits; nothing noteworthy to this point. Two players limp, and Hero ($1500) limps on the button with T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB folds, BB ($1800) checks. 4 to the flop, which comes: 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] BB leads out for $30, limpers fold, Hero calls. $105 in the pot; turn comes: T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] BB checks, Hero bets $70, BB check-raises to $200, Hero calls. $505 in the pot; river comes: J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] BB checks, Hero checks. I think that all streets might merit some discussion, but I find one to be particularly interesting... All comments greatly appreciated. ML4L |

I think I like $250 on the river and fold to a raise, but I doubt that will happen as I'm pretty sure you're ahead.

Re: 5/10 Hand (Boring Title; Interesting Hand)
Which would tend to mean that a value bet of hero's two-pair is in order, right? I don't get why so many people are in favor of the river check, not to mention the flop call.

Re: 5/10 Hand (Boring Title; Interesting Hand)
You are assuming that 10-8 is ahead here which may very well not be the case. Betting at the river here will likely only get a call from an overpair or 54 whereas opening the betting again allows a set or the striaght to reraise and Hero would hate to face an all in call for another $500+ depending of size of value bet with 10-8 here after having put more $ in. In short very few hands he has beat are likely to call and hero can't stand a huge reraise so why open the door here?

[/ QUOTE ] I don't think the flop call is atrocious-I'm trying to keep the pot small with top pair crap kicker and I'll risk an overcard coming that most likely won't hit my opponent. I agree though that the river check is suspect. As AZK noted, few players would check-raise the turn and then check-raise the river with the nuts, so the only thing that you could really worry about on the river if you bet is a check-call by a set that's trying to slow down after the turn call by hero. I say you're facing two-pair based on the action more often than anything else, and I would bet the river. |

Re: 5/10 Hand (Boring Title; Interesting Hand)
I like the flop and turn a lot.
I was somewhat torn about a small value bet on the river, but Kane brings up an excellent point. I like it. |
