River decision...

[Mike Gallo]

3betting the turn if he wont reraise with less than a set might be good, but without knowing how weak he is, I just call.

I think if I had three bet the turn and he rereaised I could have folded the river without hitting a spade.

River action.

Final board of K 9 8 K 3 no flush possible

I have K 10

The villian bet. I huddled and asked myself if he had a hand like K9 K8 88 or 33. I discounted K8 but not K9 88 or 33. I then thought back to his previous betting pattern. He would bet 2 pair hands into boards with three to a straight or three to a flush.

I put him on 89 the hand I had hoped he hand and raised. He looked at his cards muttered something and called.

He turned over 88 and took it down [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I think the villian played the hand very well until the river. He could have check raised me again. He should have put in at least one more river raise also.

Check raising you on the river would have been a bad move by him, betting into you was the correct play. Of course he was foolish for not 3-betting you, but thats typical of the weak-tight players we find in AC.

Assuming you know he is the type to only call a river raise, then I like a raise here. If you are going to lose a hand, make sure you lose the maximum!

PS: good seeing you even if it was for a shot time

You must call here. There is no other course of action.

..after a good nights sleep, I completely agree.
