River Decision Against Aggressive Freak

Subby · #1 06-13-2005, 10:42 PM

For better or worse these super-aggressive players are bringing out the uber-aggression in me pre-flop and then my utter disdain for their holdings the rest of the hand. Is my river decision here a clear fold?

UTG is 53/29/4.12 after about 30 hands.

UTG bets, Hero ... ?

i think this is an easy call.. you don't think your good here 1 in 12 times?
He could have a 9 with a worse club kicker

How come you didn't bet the flop?

Auto-betting a suited flop after re-raising pre-flop just seemed like the really *obvious* thing to do. I have also been trying to autobet the flop less (in general) when there is more than one other player in the hand. Not never, just not as much.

Auto river call.

Yes. Very clear. Also note folding is the worst of the 3 options.

Thanks for the feedback on this one.

I did call down, but probably not for the right reasons. I made my decision more based on the read of my opponent than any kind of pot odds. I need to do a better job considering the latter when I play.
