I dont' get it. If you were trying to get him to bet the river why aren't you raising? This seems much more fancy than good. I don't get it.

I don't think the turn check is bad. I'd usually just bet though. Being HU he'll pay off with a lot here.

Why didn't you raise the river?

I didn't raise the river because I didn't expect him to call with too many worse hands. Plus if he does happen to have a Queen he'll just raise. I dunno though. A raise might have been correct.

Do you like money? Then bet the turn. Checking here is so weak.

Did you think I checked because I thought I was losing?

way too fancy. you're playing 2/4, not 15/30.

I really don't see what that has to do with it.

I certainly hope you weren't checking hoping to induce a bluff on the river. You'll make more money in the long run by just betting the god dam[/i]ned turn.

If he has a crappy bluffing hand he'll probably fold if I bet the turn or raise the river.

If he has a Queen he'll check-raise the turn or 3-bet the river.

I was thinking you could probably fold to a 3-bet. But even if you call I think raise/call is better than just call.

My other thought is someone who sits and posts in MP1 is more than likely paying off a raise with a lot here, especially after your seemingly unusual turn check.

I'm really fine with this, if you're fine losing the pot to some crappy ace on the river.

I'd bet the turn and call down a check-raise most of the time, though.
