Or should I check/call this giving him a chance to bet the hand he liked on the flop and not giving him a chance to raise if that hand included a J? |

Re: The ol\' river value bet type thread
Do you really think your hand is best on the river? What do you put him on? Q10 and 1010-44?

Re: The ol\' river value bet type thread
I also think, that you are behind. My question is, if you even should call a river bet here? Answers welcome!

Re: The ol\' river value bet type thread
I'm curious, what makes you think I'm behind?
His TAF isn't too passive considering his VP$IP. I think I could call a river bet because there's quite a few hands he might bet here if I check on the river. |

Re: The ol\' river value bet type thread
check call you can beat QT KT T9 and 2 of those hands wont bet or call a bet on the river anyway.
not a value situation here, too many hands beat you since the flush came on the turn and the J paired. check raising the turn was pretty gutsy since you really only beat a J (wich isnt likely due to the flop raise) or QT. |

[/ QUOTE ] I felt that he very well could be raising the turn with either a Q or a J. Therefore, on the turn I felt that I could have the best hand. If he was on the flush draw, I still held the K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] for a redraw to the second nuts. |

Re: The ol\' river value bet type thread
i dont think many ppl are raising a J on the flop unless they are in tthe lag category.
what Q kicker do you beat. i guess Q9 QT. i try to recognoze the strgnth of my hand and play accordingly (as miller teaches some top pairs are worth betting and raising and some are not). if you were to 3 bet the flop and lead the turn, then he raises with his made flush ...you would pay only 2 big bets when you are way behind. by check raising you are gonna pay 3 big bets. i also like to stay aggro throught the hand. so if you were to raise preflop and 3 bet the flop he is gonna need a nice hand to raise you on the expensive turn and river. this pressure saves me dough in the long run i believe. |

Re: The ol\' river value bet type thread
I don't like the turn check raise at all. What are you going to do if he three bets you? You've now paid 3 bets instead of one for your flush draw. Sure you may have the best hand, but that doesn't make the play correct. I just call down after the flop raise considering his stats. I probably check call the river. I never trust 80% VPIP for one bet on the river when I have top pair. Lets not forget Hero beats a lot of QX hands too. 80% is freaking high.

Re: The ol\' river value bet type thread
I think I would rather donk him on the turn than check to him. I don't want to let him take a free card id he was raising on a straight draw or a J. I like the check call on the river myself, too.

Re: The ol\' river value bet type thread
Well, here were my thoughts while playing the hand.
1) If he's raising me with a J or a weak Q and I 3 bet him on the flop, he'll probably call and fold the turn UI winning me a small pot. 2) If I call the flop, and a non-club lands, I'll donkbet the turn so as to not allow him to check behind and take a free card. 3) If I call the flop, and a club lands, I'll check-raise him to squeak out as much value from him as I can when I'm ahead and hopefully pull out a club draw myself if I'm behind. Perhaps all of this thinking is retarded. Feel free to ignore me (although I have managed to gather that a check/call seems to be in order on the river). |
