made my straight on the turn.

villain is 48/8 after about 65 hands. He's only shown down 26% of the time. I haven't tangled with him much.

Preflop: Hero is BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG raises and is all in , MP calls, 2 folds, Hero calls.

Flop: (5 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 players)
Hero bets, MP calls.

I try to win now vs weakman.

Turn: (3.50 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 players)
Hero bets, MP raises, Hero calls.

ok card, bad action. That raise was unexpected, and I start to worry about a made flush here. My river plan is to check and call.

River: (7.50 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 players)
Hero checks, MP bets, Hero folds.

Final Pot: 8.50 BB

typically the river is a clarkmeister type bluff, but given the turn action I felt like it would be spewing. Do I hate money?

Where'd UTG Go?
i Check/Call the flop, Turn is a tempting C/r but i bet the way you played it.

Whats this guys AF?

Guruman · #3 11-20-2005, 07:28 PM

villian's ag is .073, though I didn't look when I played the hand. Edited op to account for UTG

villain is weaktight postflop and I wanted him out.

I can't c/r because

A)he has no reason to bet at me with a hand I beat unless he specifically was holding a K. I have no reason to believe this to be the case.

and

B)If he was waiting around for a flush to come in, I'll get threebet and have to spend an extra bet to showdown.

----

my real issue here is the river. Should I have boldly clarkmeistered here, or does turn action on a flush card sometimes dictate a different strategy?

POKhER · #5 11-20-2005, 07:55 PM

Yeah its a "Combined package".

if you check/call the flop, Chances are he'll continue to bet.. hence the Check/raise.

As you played it(As i said in the 2nd quote, i bet the turn).

If you get 3bet on the king[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] you can ditch it there and then IMO.

The 4th heart dropping isn't a bet vs this guy for me, i think he'll call to often with weak hearts or have the nuts from the way he played it to often for it to be profitable.

Just my 2cents...

Guruman · #6 11-20-2005, 08:12 PM

and interesting and relevant discussion

Where did UTG go?

zuluking · #9 11-20-2005, 07:27 PM

Fold preflop.

Re-raise the turn.

Bet the river.

[/ QUOTE ]
I agree if the raiser wasn't all in, but the chance he's stacking off/we're on BB i call.

[ QUOTE ]

Re-raise the turn.

[/ QUOTE ]
Agreed as this guys a bit crazy and could easily be betting a king. Are you folding to a re-raise?

[ QUOTE ]

Bet the river.

[/ QUOTE ]
I don't like it as i think we'll get called by this guy to often to make this profitable.

Please reply, Cheers.
