1010 in a tough river spot
Every player in this hand is pretty bad. The first two limpers are horrendous, and the button is a tight-ish preflop player (25%) but majorly overaggressive postflop. The reason I just called preflop was to be able to CR the field on a low card board, as the button would always bet if checked to him.

You gotta raise preflop and I would say check call the river.

[/ QUOTE ] we are going to talk about it... not raising in te described situation is horrible.. you are just giving away that free money. i would fold to the river raise... i guess he has the nuts, what else would play this way? |

[/ QUOTE ] again, I disagree. all a raise PF does a build a pot for chasing overcards. it's not giving away money because the extra money that goes in preflop that exploits your equity edge is lost (and then some) to the entire pots lost to chasing overcards in a big field of fish. I am 100% comfortable with the PF decision here. it's not the aspect of the hand I am seeking advice on. as for the river, I don't have to be right very often here. isn't it a clear call based on pot odds alone? |

In this case I was in the worst position with a super aggressive postflop player on the button and limpers who would chase overs. It was a perfect spot to limp, because with a favourable board I would be able to force overcard draws into a serious error. I actually think raising here would have been a suboptimal play, by a large margin. Anyways, the river was the interesting street to me, and has been discussed a bit. I feel it's a clear call, even in retrospect. |

Re: 1010 in a tough river spot
I think you need to fold this river. Sounds like to me he either waited to bump his flush or he hit two pair. This is not something you can beat the majority of the time IMO.
