Re: OOh, I don\'t like that turn card one bit. 200NL underboat
[ QUOTE ]
raise flop. otherwise raise turn, fold to a push. [/ QUOTE ] Note my OP in that I feel like I need to mix up my lines a bit in order to not state my hand and get zero value out of a big flop. I'm not advocating slowplay as a regular line, but it has its place against better players. This was unfortunately one of those times where I picked wrong. The turn card coming down with me OOP means I've either got to lead and fold, or check and call if i'm going to stick around. If I check-raise the turn, what's my river line? Bad spot to be in. I thought my reverse implied given the action was enough to justify the fold... but I'm not happy about it. |

I think i prefer leading the flop looking back -- checkraise would give it away and leading looks less like I have a 5 than check/calling. |

[/ QUOTE ] This isn't a great time to be tricky. Diamonds will still call here and a lot of the time an Ace will, as well. If you are so concerned about a check-raise being too obvious, just lead. |

It's fine. You're behind to the Ace a majority of the time. Even if they both had Diamonds or some other crap like Kings, the fold is +EV, IMO.
