"the turn is the Kh. i check, utg bets, 2 caller, i checkraise."
You're gonna need to provide something else, like "bettor likes to find tough folds" and "callers would always raise if they had top pair." Oops. Didn't realize you picked up a draw. Disregard comments. -Michael |

[/ QUOTE ] I dont mind checkraising here, the only problem is that your position kind of sucks. If loose passive lady wakes up with a hand she is gonna three bet your ass. If she folds the two guys in the middle and forces you to put in a third bet HU on the turn old lady is really gonna own you. If you have been pretty aggro up this point I really dont like it, but if you feel like she might be gunshy to pull the triger again on the turn with good but not great hands then I think its OK. Also, how likely is she to fold something like 1010 or QQ on the turn? Would she always bet those hand again on the turn? Interesting hand. |

Re: J8s 20-40 bb
the only hands she's 3 betting the turn with here is a set. she would probably fold QQ and TT but maybe not all the time.

Re: J8s 20-40 bb
Maybe this is too simple of a thought for this game, but if this c/raise is primarily a semibluff then it's bad. The point of a semibluff is that it has some chance of making someone fold a hand that beats you, which in my limited experience, will not happen at the Commerce 20 game. If you think (for some reason [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] ) there's a decent chance your pair is good then I love it .

Re: J8s 20-40 bb
Oh yah, duh. That makes me like the c/raise a lot more.
I suck at poker. |
