boring line check
Just checking these sorts of hands. Am i correct to be betting this turn, planning to fold to a c/r or call down?

Re: boring line check
Bet the river if he calls the turn, and I don't see any compelling reason to check this against most opponents.

Re: boring line check
Bet the turn, as you did.
Bet the river regardless of what falls. I can't think of a single card that could fall on the river that I wouldn't bet here. (Folding to a river check-raise would be player-dependent and would also depend on what the river was). BTW, raise preflop. Period. Adam |

Re: boring line check
that's player dependent. If he's passive or unknown you can. If he's a lag just call him down. That's why you need to know who (semi)bluffs and who doesn't. Oh yeah, can't fold the turn getting 6:1.

As I said above, folding to a river check-raise will depend on the river card and will be villain-dependent. Adam |

[/ QUOTE ] This is a serious answer: it depends. IMO, not raising from UTG in 6-handed game is just asking for someone to isolate behind you and take control of the hand. Then he has the fold equity, and you don't. Actually, whenever I'm the first one into a pot in a 6-handed game, open-raising is a must - for the same reasons. Adam |
