Re: Hands from the WSOP (Hand #4)
player A needs to bet the flop or turn
odd call by C on the river w/ player A left to act, i know i woudln't be able to make it. i probably wouldn't have bet as B either though, because i'm a limit tourney fish. |

Re: Hands from the WSOP (Hand #4)
I guess you can never be to careful.
If I am the raiser I will fire a barrel on the flop and perhaps even the turn. From button's perspective, if he is loose enough to call with KQ BTF on the button there's no way he will fold K high on the river with no previous action. I think this is a good call by him on the river. I don't like how the original raiser played the hand. He open raises with a hand that can be too easily dominated then he checks the hand the whole way until the river when he makes a futile steal against a loose player. Bruce |

Re: Hands from the WSOP (Hand #4)
Maybe C would expect B to check(-call?) on the river with A-high, while he would bet with K-high? Some players follow that pattern.

B manages to misplay every single postflop street.
C should probably bet the flop. I need to play the limit hold'em events at the WSOP. Will |

Re: Hands from the WSOP (Hand #4)
Well, here's the reason:
Christian is announcing major weakness with his flop check. He should really be leading here 100% of the time, and I can only see checking because he thinks you have middle pair (what else is he going to put you on when you coldcall preflop.) So bet. And what do you really lose by betting here? Your bet has a solid chance to take down the pot by itself, and getting check-raised by christian isn't a disaster either, and I find it EXTREMELY unlikely. BTW I would not coldcall preflop. If Christian is a loose raiser then three-bet, if not then fold. You did make an excellent call on the river though. One final point - you might get much better responses if you posted this in mid-high stakes limit. Will |
