reconsidering a value bet
This is a value bet that I always make, but this time right after I clicked bet I started to wonder just how much value there is in betting this. I guess i am hoping he has diamonds with the 9 or T?

Re: reconsidering a value bet
any pp will pay off. you split with most aces. whatever, its fine. easy fold if raised.
also, a flush draw that picked up a pair will pay off too. |

Re: reconsidering a value bet
what do you think about not raising the flop? How often do you think he has:
a) air b) a pocket pair he folds to a raise c) a better ace d) a flush draw that he bluffs the river with but doesn't 3bet the flop Against a lot of players I like just calling down. Am I losing too much value? |

Bad players will often pay you off with any pocket pair or any pair they happened to have picked up. |

[/ QUOTE ] [/ QUOTE ] yeah yeah yeah. i know all this. i dont even know why i asked the question considering the guy called with K high no diamonds. i guess i just feel like one of my leaks is blindly value betting w/o really thinking about it but apperently this wasnt one that i need to think about [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] |

you don't raise a diamond river, right?

Re: reconsidering a value bet
yeah that line sounds good, although it would not have maximized my value out of K4o [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]
