Re: Two Big Blind Hands
It's late, so I'm not doing combinatorics. You severely underestimate the shitiness of SH opponents. He could have a 3 or a 2 here. K and A high call down too. Sometimes Q high. I think that this is a very clear value bet.
(Assuming we're talking about having the lead in betting, very much stolen from chess theory.) There are a couple other reasons to have the initiative besides wanting him to fold, I'll let the forum figure 'em out though. I was sorta looking for a different answer. You got it right though when you said, "when you have an opponent that won't fold", but I was looking for something else. To be honest, I don't know what that "something else" is, but it's out there. I think I've even had an IRL discussion on it, too. But it was in the winter, so I don't remember. |

Also, why are you more willing to let yourself get 3bet than to let yourself be check/raised? [/ QUOTE ] Because 3-bets are more rare than c/r. Now back to finishing my sestina. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] (Not a siesta.) |

Re: Two Big Blind Hands
First hand I'm saving the bet on the river. SB bet out into 4 other people on the flop. Since he called your turn bet that makes me think he has a T or a flush draw. If he has a T we're not happy we bet the river. If he had a draw he folds anyways.
Second hand I call preflop, call the flop, and raise the turn. Since an A hit the turn if he happens to call the turn bet then I check behind UI on the river. |
