Just sat down, so no reads.

PokerStars 100/200 Hold'em (8 handed)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. CO posts a blind of $100.
UTG folds, UTG+1 raises, Hero 3-bets, MP2 folds, CO (poster) folds, Button folds, SB calls, BB folds, UTG+1 calls.

Flop: (11 SB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 players)
SB checks, UTG+1 checks, Hero bets, SB raises, UTG+1 folds, Hero calls.

Turn: (7.50 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
SB bets, Hero raises, SB calls.

River: (11.50 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)
SB checks, Hero checks.

Final Pot: 11.50 BB

Any comments on how I played the hand? I raised the turn to charge him extra if he was on a flush draw or to get him to fold a weak pair. I don't think he was folding to a bet on the river, but would you have tried anyway? Results are in white below.

SB: shows [3s 3c] (two pair, Jacks and Threes)
Hero: mucks hand
SB collected $2297 from pot

i wouldve capped the flop, capped the turn, and capped the river if given the chance.

isnt that you?

hey buddy, why does everything have to be a joke to you? I gave you honest advice on your 56...I just wanted to know if I should be betting the river or even folding on the turn instead of raising.

Folding on the turn??? Neah...you should have caped the turn and given the chance cap the river...

Really, now!

Actually this goes to show that you can't push a pocket out of the pot.

You tried to make a play in an online game and it didn't work? This is a shocking development. Just shocking. I am schocked.

Hi KushP,

I would prevent you from posting here, and, if given the opportunity, go back in time to prevent your birth.

Meh. I'll give a serious response because i think this hand has value and plays of raise-the-turn-for-the-free-showdown-with-ace-high are ones i'm doing too often.

Given the way SB played it it's unlikely he has a draw, UTG+1 raised preflop increasing the chances he may checkraise this flop so if SB had a decent draw it would be ideal for him to call, hope fr UTG+1 to raise, then reraise. Moreso the way he played it he's out of position and knocked a player out on the flop, seems like he's protecting something.

Hence for that reason i fold the turn instead of taking this to showdown. If i was going to take it to showdown i'd def. raise the turn.

Also, on a flop that isn't two rags one medhigh card i'd like the turn raise more as then you have a better chance of him having a low pair thus a better bluff success rate.
