This hand is 100% standard. This is a good river value bet against a typical opponent. Calling the river raise is fine.

You realize you have a flush right?

Wizard0965 · #5 05-04-2005, 09:10 PM

Yes, but it's only the third nut flush and his reraise I put him on the higher flush.

shadow29 · #6 05-04-2005, 09:10 PM

Yes I realize this.

But you have a flush, therefore you bet the river.

Alright, thanks.

and if you have the Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] , do you put him on the A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ?

Not necessarily, but by the same token I'm not going to bet out with 4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] if I put him on the higher flush, I'll just call.
