Re: Q9s, paired board
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] I am folding this preflop at .5/1. I would raise QTs+. You should raise the flop, but since you didn't I like raising the turn. You will often at this level get a free showdown, but you can bet when you make your flush. If he 3-bets you can call and fold the river unimproved. True [/ QUOTE ] I do not like the turn raise in this spot for 2 reasons: -the pot is small -if we do not have the best hand we have to almost always pay three bets to draw [/ QUOTE ] Call/Call cost 2 bets, Raising turn costs maximum of 3 bets. We also make the flush 20% of the time, and when we get 3-bet we win 2-4 on the river (when we win) I think you are also understimating the amount of times we have the best hand here. This is .5/1 and people are not prone to play trips quickly. Maybe we should raise this preflop, but I don't. I don't think I am missing out much value from it when we already have UTG calling so we lose the chance to win this pot unchallenged. True |
