Default Re: Hand vs Sklansky

haven't read any responses but its an interesting hand. I like the flop and turn play. given his reaction you should check fold the river. when you bet the river you only do it for 2 reasons. to get a worse hand to call or a better hand to fold. The only worse hand that calls is AK and that's only a maybe. What better hands are folding? none. So check. If he has the balls to bet a worse hand he deserves the pot. But think about being in his shoes. He's probably checking behind all hands that you beat + some of the ones that beat you. If he bets this river he is doing it to get an extra bet out of you. 77 and 66 are checking behind. you can safely fold.

if he had 77-55 or TT he'd have raised the turn.

Raising the turn = 2 bets and he can release if he gets reraised.

Call the turn and calling the river = 2 bets and he can get easily outdrawn this way if he's ahead.

Would A10o, KQo, and KJs enter the picture, not to mention some other edgier suited connector holdings?

After all, you do have position.

Far be it that I think that everything I say is always going to be 100% on the money, but it's downright ludicrous to believe it's a fishy play to 3-bet from the button with those holdings against someone who very easily can be raising lighter than that.

If you look at all of his posts they are just retarded pictures in reply to threads. It's clearly some other 2+2er's gimmick account and I wish it would be banned already as I put the gimmick account on ignore a long time ago.

I am somewhat surprised David did not raise the river.

Yeah i definitly would raise the river, however with David's somewhat tighter and more predictable range here (and i dont mean this in a bad way, it just seems he is less likely to get out of line here) A lot of people probably don't pay off a raise from him.

El D,

I don't see enough hands that pay off vs getting 3-bet to make this worth a river raise. Too often this trun bet is a smaller pocket pair or stone cold bluff that will muck the river. And if he did have and over pair, TT-QQ, JJ got there.

As for the way Schneids played the hand, I like the turn bet a lot but I believe a river check is in order and if David values, the muck should be considered.

We are told David thought he was up against a typical overaggressive online player, so he possibly did not feel he could fold to a 3 bet.
