A check/raised river

[elindauer]

Your opponent's comment makes me slightly more inclined to believe he has the nut flush, as that's what I've been shown the only times I've heard talk like this at a table (note: my live experience is limited).

Still, I don't think you can fold. Call. If it comes back capped, maybe you can make the pro laydown. I guess. Or something.

Good luck.

I agree. After your turn raise is just called, you have to think you are ahead. Bet the river.

Man like woman. Man be nice to woman. Man try to impress woman. Man tell woman what cards he have.

Several of our posters have said that they believed the guy actually was telling the truth. Wouldn't you think that this would MORE LIKELY happen if the guy actually had the nut flush?. After 2 days, I am still trying to figure out why this talkative sb would admit to having a mere set here. Oh wait....he's a man and I'm a Babe [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I would like to know if the posters here would tell someone about their hand when it was NOT the nuts.

Hi Babe,

I find men tend to tell women the truth at the poker table. It may be a double reverse thing. Since women are so used to us lying to them they won't believe us when we tell the truth. Maybe it's because it will look bad to the other men to be seen lying to a woman, I'm not sure.

I thought you should have three bet the river, because the way the hand was played, you were large enough favorite to have the best hand. The fact that the guy told you what he had only added a snippet of confirmation and only because you are a woman. I find things work out best when I avoid over-thinking someones remarks about their hand.

On the other hand, slow playing the nut flush on the turn, is probably the biggest post-flop inappropriately deceptive move I see, but it isn't a common enough error not to three bet, in this case. (How was that sentence?)

Love you,
Gabe

I'm just glad she didn't fold.
