Bad River Call with Trip Js

[Entity]

[ QUOTE ]
You are verifying my thoughts. It knew it was a bad/emotional call on the river. I lost "it".

Was the turn OK?

[/ QUOTE ]

I would probably check the turn, but it's not a terrible bet.

Hmmm...I'm fairly certain Hero will win this 1/17 times...nobody else agrees? =(

Who check/raise bluffs the 4th diamond against two other players? Against a maniac (or two, I should say) I could call. Here - I don't think so.

Never fold to one bet on the river in a huge pot. You're fine calling it down.

This is pretty bad. I'd say calling this river is close to a full BB mistake.

Let's do some basic hand reading. What range of hands will a typical player check-3bet on the turn?

sure Hero MAY win this 1/17...i think this is the remaining 16/17 of those times. why waste your money?

I bet because 1 player had already checked but I was 50-50 on whether to check or bet. I didn't want to see it checked through.

Why not? The board's already scary enough! [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] Not too many scare cards yet to come. I still don't think a bet is horrible, but a check would probably be safer.

I'm not even sure I win 1/17 of these.

I made the call because I was steaming from a big prior hand and I knew I was about to lose with 3 Jacks. The thought of this being the 1 in 50 times the 3 Jacks wins here would have caused me to jump out my window. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] So I made an emotional and poor call. I was really more interested in the turn play of the hand.

I guess I can see how folding is right in this situation, but I think if this situation ever came up, I'd risk the 1 bet and make the crying call. That's probably why I suck at poker =(.

Yes you do. You are behind and drawing to a boat/quads. If you hit it, there are still hands that beat you, but unlikely. Take the free card. It is very possible you can get it, if first player was going for a check raise and the third player does not like his 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] he holds.
