A4s -- I need a better line . . .
. . . because I'm pretty sure the one I took sucked.
For some context, though, here's what took place in the hand immediately before the one I'm wondering about, with basically the same cast: Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (10 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx Preflop: Hero is UTG with 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Hero calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+2 calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Hero calls, UTG+2 calls. Flop: (9.40 SB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> Hero checks, UTG+2 checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets</font>, CO calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG+2 folds, MP2 calls, CO calls. Turn: (7.70 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP2 folds, CO folds. <font color="#0000FF">I was gritting my teeth while I bet the turn.</font> Final Pot: 8.70 BB All right, on to the A4s hand. MP3 is 33/12/0.9 after 102 hands. My only note on him told me he once checkraised the flop with overs from the blinds after the PFR led the flop in a multiway pot. I don't have very many hands with MP1.

Re: A4s -- I need a better line . . .
On the A4 hand, I could go for a donk on the turn folding to a raise.

Re: A4s -- I need a better line . . .
I don't like betting the turn and folding to a raise, many people will expect you are donking a FD and raise.
I would go with a c/c and c/r the turn if a harmless card falls I'd c/r. My reasoning behind this is that you are representing a good hand that you are protecting from a possible draw. You might even fold MP1 off a hand like AKo in this situation. |

[/ QUOTE ] So this MP1 is going to stick around on that flop with two big overcards, then when his gin card comes on the turn, your raise is going to make him just fold? Are you planning to look real mean while you put the raise in? EDIT: I see this has been amply ridiculed before me. I withdraw my sassy tone. |

Re: A4s -- I need a better line . . .
The first hand is fine. Betting that turn is a lot better than checking it.
I like the check/call turn, donkbet river line on the second hand personally. |
