Worst river ever, call small bet in big pot?

[ahnuld]

Playing 1-2 nl on Prima, just lost my buy-in, guess I have a normal image, not supertight. I limp UTG with 66. Few limps, sb raises the min to 4. All call. 5 to flop

(20) Flop: 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

He is a little shorstacked, prob. 90 behind him. I raise to 24. All fold, he calls. Turn is a J pairing the board, giving me a FH. He checks, I bet 24 into 90 pot, trying to look weak/ milk it. He calls, River is the 3rd Jack !
Board is A J J J 6 He goes allin for his last 31. There is 144 in pot. Easy fold?

yeah that really sucks... you aren't beating really any playable hands. The best you could hope for is a split, but looks like he has an ace and sucked out.

sucks but easy fold.

I have not read the OP or any of the replies (just the title). My guess is there's a 95% chance the answer is yes.

Guess again aggie, read the OP

No, in fact, it's not even the worst river that you could have gotten in this particular hand

Ummmm, if you think you know the answer than why did you post? was it a bad beat story?

Now that i've read your post, I call this against any unknown player....And once in a while i run into a diamond draw.....So i stand by my original response.

And by the way, wrong forum

[amoeba]

why do you not put him in on the turn?

he only had 1/2 pot left on the turn....

you really had to slowplay that last 30?

[ahnuld]

Aggie what do you think would be the worst river card? An A is bad but not as bad becuase KK is a possible holding. This way any pair has me beat. And second, no i'm not posting it as a bad beat, but it isnt an obvious call like you're implying, it is a difficult situation.

Oh and I'm posting in this forum becuase the repsonses are 100 times better. Sure 1-2 plays different than 2-4, but I aprreciate the higher caliber of responses only found on this forum, Ahnuld

damn....you're totally right....if i could retract my statement i would.....for some reason i was thinking the A would counterfit you...My bad...

Where did i imply that? I hate calling here but i do it anyway....The point i was trying to make is that i almost always call small bets into large pots if there is any question in my mind at all.

I appreciate that but it's sort of disrespectful of the other posters in this forum. Most of them don't want to read about 1-2NLHE....At the very least put the stakes in the title and perhaps apologize upfront for posting in what you knew was the wrong forum....

I'm not saying you should not read this forum....You probably should as there are some very smart people here. But they stop posting when they have to sift through so much spam (such as posts that belong in other forums)

this is also kind of disrespectful of SSNL forum, but whatever.
