Ultimate Bet 1/2 Hold'em (6 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is CO with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
MP calls, Hero raises, Button calls, 1 fold, BB calls, MP calls.

Flop: (8.50 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (5 players)
BB checks, MP bets, Hero raises, Button folds, BB folds, MP calls.

Turn: (6.25 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 players)
MP checks, Hero checks.

Is this standard against a loose calling station?

Let me hear your thoughts.

Bet the turn and check behind on the river. It costs the same, and we fold a pp (maybe a 9) some of the time.

Doubt I make him fold anything. He's been calling down with king high, etc.

That would be a bad idea against this player.

you're absolutely right

I thought this was 10-handed

you have to call this river fo sho

edit: this depends on how passive this player is - if quite passive I don't call a river bet, because they're definitely not betting the flop with a hand that we beat

I don't know if the trade off of quoting a good post is worth the time spent looking at that avatar. [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img]

Don't raise the flop and check the turn. Either call the flop or bet the turn.

This is my standard line. Costs the same and you can fold a lot of hands with the turn bet.

How can this be better against a calling station?

He's been calling down with king high, bottom pair

The flop raise knocks out drawing hands, allows me to isolate a terrible player.

I'm just confused..
