Can I call a river bet with T-high?

How good is this guy that we're up against???

Either you're over-rating him or under-rating yourself.

I made a mistake with the 17% and fixed the post.

but when he raises, you are paying 1.5SB in a 4SB pot to see a -EV hand's flop OOP.


this quick reply feature is the best thing ever

right, and the fact that you completed gives him info that will help him push any preflop equity edge that he has. He knows you figure to have a weak hand so he can both exploit an edge with a hand like Q8 and seize the initiative. If you limp a lot with good hands this offsets this, but I doubt OP does. You're gonna have a lot of trouble realizing your equity when you're out of position against an opponent who is raising the majority of his hands.

T7s isn't -EV. Check your database.

[baronzeus]

-EV against his range. obvious T7s is +EV in multiway pots and even HU pots in position, but not in this case.

C'mon baron, what range? He's the BB and his range is still undefined.

[baronzeus]

i was referring to the times he raises...costing you 1.5SB. see my OP about this

even if he raises ANY 2, we are even EV OOP

If you bet the river, do you think he will fold more than 33% of the time?

[kurosh]

Against a good player, I'm probably completing or folding here. I have no reason to believe he's good enough to not play this hand here. Most of these players suck and I'll take it down with a flop or turn bet.
