you needed to play for alot more on the flop and if you lose them so be it.

I was thinking the small raise was the best way to induce a big play from one of these guys. Later action (I played a 3k pot all-in on the flop w/ button v. his one pair) proved this thought to be correct.

on the turn is not the place to put your dough in.

OK, that was my main Q. With these stacks, I was thinking maybe I did want a little more on the turn. But I have been eating more fish and am more calm now.

Ray,

Can you explain why you dont want $$ going in on the turn?

Ray Zee · #15 06-12-2005, 09:46 PM

because if $$$$ goes in on the turn you are a 3.4 to one dog to win and not likely to get a chance to see it happen.

Who cares?

do you usually check behind with a set in a big pot when the obvious draw hits? (when someones calling looks like a draw of course)

i do and have been criticized for it, in this forum for one.

i love calling the river and seeing people get upset they didnt make more with their straight! but i wonder how much value im losing...at least i dont ever have to fold sets...
