Default Re: K high river call

I'd fold, I don't expect to be good here with K high, but I think you are posting it because you made a godlike call with K high and are happy about it! [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

heh, I wish. He showed the flop straight, and I felt kinda dumb for calling with K high. But thought my reasons for doing so still might have been valid

I just couldnt figure out why if he had a strong c/r hand, he would check the blankest turn in the world. I know .9 isnt very high, but he also has the stats indicative of a retarded player, so I wasnt really ready to give him credit for strength and figured it just as easily could have been some draw he was pumpng that I could beat. But I think everyone is right in the fact, it would be a pretty bad spot for him to bluff the river. But then again, retards dont think about that. Tho I suppose only retards assume so much about someone because of crappy stats, and this would maybe be a good play if I had a read he was actually the retard I imagined him to be [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I can't figure out the turn CR unless he was smart enough to pretend to represent the flush draw and know MP was going to bet the turn again (with or without a hand) and could go for the double CR. Of course if he had the clubs as well, I don't mind his check at all, unless he was sure his raise would push out a weaker hand that didn't have a redraw or betting, and 3-betting would as well.

Hard to read someone like that but the .9 stood out to me with his flop CR and his river bet looks like an "I have a hand" value bet rather than a complete bluff.

Interestingly, I thought about the flopped straight when he CRed, but the turn check does throw you off in respect to that hand. Checking with a straight when you have the clubs out there looks somewhat dangerous but it's only 3 handed, but I don't think a player as loose as him is thinking at any of those levels. Maybe he misclicked! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
