Re: The Best Value Bet in History
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] thanks for putting up the singular worst play i made the entire night [/ QUOTE ] Wow, you must have played one hell of a game that night because I'm not seeing how this play is so bad. Preflop-good. Flop-good. Turn-I would have bet. River-Bet and fold to a raise, bet-call or check-call seems to be the only options you have. How would you have played it differently now that you know the results? [/ QUOTE ] The turn check is bad at best. -James

[ QUOTE ] I really don't see how this could be the best value bet in history. [/ QUOTE ] Especially since it was obvious to the other 3 players at the table that his hand was no good. BB had 9T and HHWG. [/ QUOTE ] Where's the turn bet by the BB? b

What does the BB gain by betting into a preflop raising SB on a QJT board when the SB unexpectedly checks the turn?

Re: The Best Value Bet in History
Being that the flop gave absolutely no info since it was all bet/called in the dark, I think many more hands will call the turn bet than if the flop was bet/called normally.
What is the BB thinking that the sb thinks he could have as far as how they've played up to that point? The BB could be representing a wide range of hands here. The sb is inducing a bet here. b

Re: The Best Value Bet in History
What possible good can happen for the BB if he bets. Seriously. No better hand is folding. He's behind a bunch of hands but has maybe lots of outs. There's just no mileage in betting here. In these games, good players take free cards when offered. This was a very good player.
[ QUOTE ] The sb is inducing a bet here [/ QUOTE ] Exactly.

I love being hung over
Whiskey binger last night. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
I misread the post and thought the BB flopped a bottom end str8. Sigh! This is the 2nd of only a few posts I've misread today. Not a good ratio. Makes me reeaaal glad I didn't play today. Yes, this is an easy check behind. Duh. Sorry for those wasted 3 responses. b

It was an all-time high stakes for him, so I think a little FPS leaked into him on this one. [/ QUOTE ] and i honestly did think he'd bet with something he could "have nothing to do but call" preflop and then smoke call the flop. -Barron
