Re: lost with TPTK
Because of the flush draw, I couldn't give my opponent a free card here. The queen might have given AQ a hand that beat me, or I might be behind to a set or AJ, but the flush draw wouldn't make me slow down here. I'd continue the aggression and bet 600 and go from there.

Re: lost with TPTK
I'd use up all my time bank on this one, wondering if he is bluffing me with a flush draw, or if he is loose enough to have KT (possibly suited of spades, which would be a good draw on that flop), or has my ace beat right now. I'd probably fold and still have 2000 chips to play with if he raised me, because there can't be too many hands that I'd be ahead of here that would raise me there after calling a decent bet on the flop and me throwing another good bet on the turn. I am behind to AQ, AJ, KT, 88, JJ, or QQ here, and I can't think of a hand that would raise me here that doesn't have my TPTK beat. So I'd give it up and live to fight another battle.

Re: lost with TPTK
I've learned that when I'm playing my hand straight and it's semi-strong but the board isn't cooperating, to give the villain credit for what he's representing. Trust your gut.

Re: lost with TPTK
Ugh.
I don't think you have enough chips to check-call to the river. I think I check and either raise all in or fold depending on his bet size. Ugly freaking spot, I don't know what's right here. Regards, Woodguy |

Re: lost with TPTK
Probably come over the top of a bigger bet and as a small one *probably* wants to get called, but really not being in the hand, I'm not sure.
Again, I really don't know what's right here. Given that he called on that board and the Q coming off the turn I'm having problems putting him on a hand you beat, unless he's an uber-donk. Regards, Woodguy |

Re: lost with TPTK
You played the turn like I would have. This ace on the river still puts you ahead of any flush draw (cept the KT of spades), but behind to AJ, AQ, JJ, QQ, or 99. Since he just called your bet, he could easily have a weaker ace and think the board is good enough to split a pot here, or have a flush draw that he missed. I'd think that villian would raise any set on the turn cuz of the flush possibility and the board getting too dangerous for straights. I think he would raise with AQ also. AJ he might not raise there, and just called, and KT would be most likely to just call and let you bet again into him on the river since he feels safest here.
I hate this board and the actions of the other guy, I guess I'd check call any reasonable bet he threw at me, and be prepared to muck to his hand that has me beat. If he put me all in, I'd have to call here, but I wouldn't like it. I really hate this board. |
