Default Re: UB 5/10 NL river decision

My default, when in "not paying attention" mode, is fold. Really player dependent.

smells like he made a boat either with 66 on turn, checking to let you catch up or on river with 77...without any good notes I think I would fold this one even though its hard

Value raising hands would also include 89s and 9Ts if villain is raising the straight.

there isnt really enough info to put him on a hand here worth making any good folds or calls. you simply call because you have a good hand and good hands are hard to beat.

The reason my default is fold is that most people are pansies that need at least the k high flush to repot here.

I smell a 77 there.. His continuation bet on the flop failed. He checked the turn cause he gave up and the free river minted him.

Blackjack

Call. He doesn't think you have the flush. If you are winning, he won't call a raise.

so in other words, it's better to be stupid than good sometimes.

Default Re: UB 5/10 NL river decision

I'm not used to playing on UB, but it seems like this is a crucial question:

How often does he rely on the bet pot button vs. making a more "standard" smallish river raise. IOW, does his big raise mean anything, or is it just the standard press of a button?

I think if it's a standard use of the bet pot button, I call, but I might be able to find a fold if he is a good player and this is an unusually large raise for him.

Edit: After skimming the responses, I am shocked to see a raise considered. It is completely out of the question unless you have reason to put him on specifically a K or A high flush, and think he is capable of folding, but given the limited information we have, it seems out of the question.

i didn't say i would raise, i was just pondering if this was along the lines of what el diablo might be saying, since it seems unorthodox. maybe he's suggesting a fold instead? heh.
