Re: turn raise for free showdown
[ QUOTE ]
I also don't like giving him the chance to 3bet pair + draw or something and push me of the best hand or a 5 outer. [/ QUOTE ] Once again..his stats show he's too passive for this sort of play. Against a more aggressive donker a call down would be much better...I agree. [ QUOTE ] Also, if he has a 10 sometimes he's gonna call your raise and donk a nonclub river, thwarting your free showdown attempt. [/ QUOTE ] I think this happens less than 5% of the time with this sort of player. [ QUOTE ] You also don't want him folding worse pairs and he's gonna make more if he hits on the river b/c you can't really fold at that point. [/ QUOTE ] again...look at his stats...he's not folding worse pairs he's definitely showing them down. [ QUOTE ] Also, I really don't like the preflop raise. [/ QUOTE ] Yea this is a pretty borderline raise but blinds were tightish. against an unknown, tag, or lag calling turn is a MUCH better play |

Re: turn raise for free showdown
It is unlikely that the donk bet on the turn is coming from a draw because villian is betting into 3 people, one of whom has shown strength the entire hand. you want to see showdown, but you also want to charge draws the most, which is why I'm assuming you raised the turn. if there were other players still to act behind you i would be more inclined to make this play because you're charging them the most to draw, but in this situation you're probably up against a made hand from a villain who's trying to protect his hand. either that or he's donk betting a monster that he doesn't want to get checked through or he doesn't want to checkraise the field with. raising the turn will cost you at least two bets - you can fold to a turn 3bet but there are a lot of river donk bets that'll leave you in a :/ situation. by calling the turn and the river you're paying two bets at most, in a hand that you don't want to fold and you don't have to worry too much about charging draws anymore.
concering the preflop raise - I play it the same way but I'm not entirely sure if it's right. i'm intersted to hear some more about what other people think about it. |

[/ QUOTE ] He's 51/6.8/1.08 and just donked the turn into 3 players including a pfr on a board with a 3-flush flop and turn blank. I'd say he's one of the most likely types of players to donk his T on a non-[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] river. Plus, I think he has a pair far more often than he has a draw, but people seem to disagree with me there. |

Re: turn raise for free showdown
I don't think if matters if you raise this preflop or not. The equity difference is too small. You just have to really know not to keep firign at an ugly flop if you raise. Raising a borderline hand at 5/10 isnt a decision that costs more than 5 cents. Theres nothing wrong either way.
