I think it accomplishes a ton, if he was going for a weak bet to induce a bluff raise. It's so opponent dependant and not a lot of people in SSNL use that maneuver. As a default against an unknown, check-call is better. Against a player capable of pouncing on weak bets, I love his line. KoW |

[/ QUOTE ] As you say, it's very opponent-dependant. But I like the idea behind it. In this case since we were given no reads, I can't see recommending trying to induce here. |

[/ QUOTE ] Ya any reads at all would help. Clearly as stated check-call is better against an unknown. Some reason I felt like he was trying to induce a bluff raise (based solely on reading the HH) and I was surprised no one brought it up yet (people even went so far as saying it didn't accomplish anything!).

Re: pokerstars
I don't mind the river blocking bet. I think $9 should get you to showdown with most villains who do not hold the mortal nuts. The min raise is odd, but I still call and would not be surprised to see a Q high flush or A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Re: pokerstars
I prob check the river fearing the flopped flush.
How does one get banned from PokerStars? |
