Re: (22\'s) - Just turned nut flush on a paired board.....now what?
Yeah, I wasn't giving him credit for turning a boat...just didn't want to lose him. If the board had NOT been paired, would everyone still have raised the nut flush with this same action on the turn?

I'm stunned. I'd be more than willing to type "Ilya is the greatest hand reader in the world" 50 times. Nevermind, didn't read a previous post where you mentioned that he did in fact make 8s full. I will write "Ilya is results oriented" 50 times though. [/ QUOTE ] I freely admit that I had seen the results but regardless, I do think that Villains very often have boats in this spot. It's true that it looks like you're scared of the flush card, but the pot isn't very big and Villain has plenty of chips. There's little pressure on him to make a big bluff. |

[/ QUOTE ] Actually, yes. The reason is that I'm trying to build a pot, and mini bets don't do it. I may raise very little, trying to induce a bluff. The thing I've learned over my long 25 months of serious poker, is that you're more likely to win big pots early by betting, not by calling and hoping your opponent catches something. For early in tournaments, with full tables, that 'something' will often beat you. |
