Did you raise pre flop?

[/ QUOTE ]

yes.

[/ QUOTE ]

why?

33 is not a very good hand to stealing with if you are gonig to get called.

flop, just fold, if he has a flush draw, you are actually an underdog, if he has a pair, you are drawing to 2-4 outs.

river, i guess since you made it this far, i'd call, but i wouldn't like it.

why not bet the turn and take a free showdown? if Button reraises you than it's an easy fold.

This is what I was thinking about. The bb is NEVER check-raising the turn on a bluff.

Yeah, but if he checkraises 2-pair or something your draw might still be good. I like the turn/river play.

That is the exact reason I checked. I dont know which one I like better.

I think it's very unlikely that 2-pair would risk checking this through without a club, but who knows. I would not [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

This assumes that your opponent plays good and thinks about these possibilities. Most of the time they don't.

Even if he's betting a flush draw on the flop he still probably has around 15 outs against you. Just fold.
