Re: A stupid river fold in 3/6
Btw, some people will say check, but betting this turn is a great way to disguise your hand, and it's for value if both of them call.
Hmm...Yeah, I'd check because I bet on the flop to buy a free card on the turn, and it worked out [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]). I might bet with a nut flush draw. It was too tight of me to make the laydown. I do think if the board were paired it might have been more justifiable. I was looking in the Miller book and he comments on his section on the river about illogical play - that point really hit home [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]). The quick bet and re-raise though made me assume I was beat for sure. Thankfully it didn't put me on tilt, except for one loose call with QT offsuit on the button. Had another player I'd been watching made the re-raise, I may have folded, but if it's two new guys I'm up against why on earth I'd fold this is beyond me. Thanks for the input though - look forward to continuing the discussion, Paul |

Re: A stupid river fold in 3/6
Paul your betting the flop for value you have a huge equity edge and should get as many bets in on the flop as possible. Also the free card play usually only works when you have position on the field certainly not from the small blind. Checking the turn here pretty much gives your hand away to anyone with half a brain and who knows a turn bet may even win the pot with 9 high (wouldn't that be cool [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]) and getting raised isn't a big deal because of the amount of outs that you have to improve.
