The reason the reactions are different is because pokerbabe is positioning her action as a good play, which it wasn't.

Hi El D,

I am indeed positioning this as a play for this hand vs. this particular opponent. Over an infinite number of trials, checking this board on the river would be an error. In this particular case, checking seems right to me.

for certain players, given their local knowledge and real life reads, it's a check. I think that's what a lot of posters are missing.


Hi M2d,

Yes, it's clear that some people missed the point on this one.

i am often accused here of being weak tight, which i do not agree.

Even people more famous than the Babe have been accused of being weak-tight. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

And that has nothing to do with the fact that you never, ever, ever bluff on the river?

Really? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Would you say that if he rolled QQ? You and your opponent explain why it was that given your respective styles, he was going to have JJ or QQ here. If that is the case, the fact that he had JJ in this particular case does not make checking more correct. Understanding that concept is important if you care about maximizing your winrate in this game.

Your insistence on the 3rd person is extremely disturbing. That is all.

No, I don't pay off a check raise on the river to this guy. Nope, uh uh....no way.

No offense to you babe, but that is why your style is sub-optimal. do you know how hard it is to win when you have to have an overpair against his overpair. and he is just calling? granted, you probably play live, in vegas or la. where their are just absolutely horrible players (in those mid-limit games), who never catch on.

Good check and all.....
