Two river decisions that have me thinking...
So the river brings me top two pair. Unfortunately it fills a straight draw and a backdoor flush draw. Does anyone raise this river? I figured going for the overcall would bring just as much if I'm ahead as a raise would? It seemed like a standard play but looking at it after the fact I'm not sure what the best move might have been...
PartyPoker - $0.50/$1 Texas - 9 players (Converter: PGC) Button is 45/9/2.0 (11) SB is 100/0/1.3 (16) BB is 44/0/0.8 (16) Hero is UTG with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] PreFlop <font color="red">Hero RAISES</font>, <font color="blue">UTG+1 folds</font>, <font color="blue">MP1 folds</font>, <font color="blue">MP2 folds</font>, <font color="blue">MP3 folds</font>, <font color="blue">CO folds</font>, <font color="green">Button Calls</font> <font color="green">SB Calls</font>, <font color="green">BB Calls</font> (4 players) FLOP: 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ( Pot Size: 4.00 BB ) <font color="green">SB checks</font>, <font color="green">BB checks</font>, <font color="red">Hero BETS</font>, <font color="green">Button Calls</font> <font color="green">SB Calls</font>, <font color="green">BB Calls</font> (4 players) TURN: 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ( Pot Size: 6.00 BB ) <font color="green">SB checks</font>, <font color="green">BB checks</font>, <font color="red">Hero BETS</font>, <font color="green">Button Calls</font> <font color="green">SB Calls</font>, <font color="blue">BB folds</font> (3 players) RIVER: Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ( Pot Size: 9.00 BB ) <font color="red">SB BETS</font>, <font color="green">Hero Calls</font>, <font color="green">Button Calls</font> Final Pot:12.00 BB And here this guy is in his second hand at the table and just calls down to the river. From his first three actions at the table, buying in for $10, posting UTG and then calling two bets out of the BB, I assumed he was rather fishy but I still couldn't decided whether to throw in a value bet or not.

1st hand is fine.
2nd hand is easy value bet on the river. No reason to be afraid of that flush. |
