Re: A poll
I misread the OP. I thought the turn sequence went check-bet-call instead of the actual bet-call. Because of my misread I voted fold, but would have voted for a call had I been paying attention.
It looks to me a lot like the SB had a nut flush draw and figured the pot was big enough to take a stab at it on the river (this is the only real way to pull down this pot for him). Another factor would be that I would like to see if this unknown player is actually the tricky river type player. What better time to find out this information on a new player then the first hand you play with him? This is not a bad situation to find out that kind of information as there is also a fairly good chance that you do indeed have the best hand. You only need to have the best hand about 10% of the time to show a profit here. My answer could have been different depending on whether ot not the UTG player timed out with disconnect protection. I can't see the OP right now but I think it was mentioned that he was folded out. |

Re: A poll
I think there may also be a difference btwn how we act and how we know we should act. I wonder how many of us actually fold here. Regardless, I think this is a should call anyway. The chance that he has missed is str8 or flush is too great.
However, odds are you're losing this hand -IMHO CSC |

30/60, fish raises UTG, you coldcall preflop on the button with 88, unknown in the SB coldcalls. Flop: 2s3s4o, UTG bets, you raise, SB coldcalls, UTG times out and folds. Turn: 3o. Bet-call. River: Jo. You bet, he checkraises, you... [/ QUOTE ] i voted call. it reeks of a draw. -Barron |

My rough quick math shows i have to be good 1/5 times with my bluff and 1/3 2+2ers fold, so yea, it's good. ... that's assuming a 2+2er would always have 66 77 88 99 here, AJs seems possible, maybe others. [/ QUOTE ] a thinking player would realize what was going on...by not checkraising the TURN, it gives too much of a chance for a call... if you think you're going to make this play on the river then do it on the turn and bet the river if called on the turn...i think this gets you a fold way more often. plus you may get a free card on the turn. but by not checkraising the turn, it looks so much like its a last ditch effort that id call here every time. -Barron |

I want to add that I am no longer a big fan of raising/chkRzing a flush draw. It is just so damn obvious and common. CSC |
