10/20 6max: bets in weird places - KTo

[Surfbullet]

CO is a 64/0/.7 over 54 hands.
Button is a 17/11/1.7 over not that many hands...I got the impression he was quite LAG despite his stats, though.

This is a situation where I C/R the flop, lead the turn.

Your line is kinda weird, just wondering what are your thoughts on it? Not calling it bad, just it is a line I never would consider.

[ISF]

I think your line is fine up to the river, but I dont get the river bet, I dont really see you being ahead of villans range of hands, and folding to a raise sucks so I would just check call. Being out of position sucks.

[GetThere1Time]

Why the river bet?

[colgin]

I probably would have C/Rd the flop and led the turn but I guess you are trying to trap MP, which doesn't seem like a bad idea.

If your read is correct that Button is a LAG then I think the river bet is fine (although query why you don't reraise the turn in that case, especially since at that point you still have your OESD to fal back on if you happen to be behind). If he is not, then I check-call.

[GetThere1Time]

but if he's a LAG doesn't he bet the river 100% of the time anyway? And doesn't getting raised here again suck?

[spydog]

I think you need to CR this flop and let MP make a bad decision if he's holding an Ace, 9 or has paired up on this flop. I really don't like your call here.

[Guy McSucker]

Is this a standard call preflop? I see we're most likely getting 5-1 but we have the worst of bad positions (front of the field with bettor on our right) and our hand pretty much sucks.

I raise the flop. The way you played it, I check/call river though. Are you folding to a raise?
