Busted flush draw and weak jack?

Only one other person showed - UTG folded to the check on the river, I think busted flush is probably right for him.

Bet the turn and fold to a raise. There's only two other players, so you can't assume an ace is out there. As scary as that card is to you, it's just as scary to them. Since you didn't bet the turn, I think checking behind on the river and betting the river are close. I just don't see worse hands calling given there's an A, K and J out; however, since you didn't bet the turn, anyone with a pair may very well call, but I'm still not sure betting the river is correct.

I'd bet the turn. If you get raised you can fold.

With four outs to a gutshot and, say, 1 adjusted out for the set, I think hero can call if raised.

mvoss · #7 04-28-2005, 12:00 PM

With 5 outs and 7.75-to-1 this is a close decision, calling could be right.

Edit: The gutshot outs should be adjusted since the pot sometimes will be split, so I don't know if hero actually has the odds to call.

How about betting this river?

Not sure if I like it. If you're called, I'm not expecting to take this down often.

Ya, I don't like a river bet or a turn bet. Good shot at the pot on the flop, and way to tone it down after. I'm probably not betting the turn or river with or without the ace out there. Nice hand.
