99 .25-.50 Scary Turn Bet
PokerStars 0.25/0.50 Hold'em (10 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx
Preflop: Hero is UTG+2 with 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. UTG calls, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP2 calls, MP3 calls, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, UTG calls. Flop: (11.40 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font> UTG checks, UTG+1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP2 calls, MP3 calls, UTG calls, UTG+1 folds. Turn: (7.70 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises</font>, MP3 folds, UTG folds, Hero calls. River: (11.70 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets</font>, Hero calls. Final Pot: 13.70 BB Comments on all streets appreciated. I felt like he had the flush on the turn, but the pot was too big for me to let go because I also thought it was possible he was trying to use the spade as a scare, or semi-bluffing with the flush draw + 2 overs. Oh, and villain is new to the table but had played his first 6 hands all to the flop at least. |

Re: 99 .25-.50 Scary Turn Bet
Any reads?
I 3-bet preflop most of the time. The turn raise could mean a lot of things, as you noted, but unless this is exactly a semi-bluff with spades + overs, your 1 pair is now behind. I don't think i can fold the turn, though. That river sucks. I'm tempted to make a crying call getting almost 12:1, but unless Villain is insane, you should probably fold. I would, however, call a non-spade, non-ace river. |

Re: 99 .25-.50 Scary Turn Bet
I really don't like the CC pre-flop. There are situations that it is the right play, but not here IMO.
I'm suspicious of UTG+1's flop check. This board probably didn't hit anyone (but I haven't played this level in a while, so it may have). I really wish he woulda bet it, so we could raise. Meh, flop bet is good. The turn card aslo completes a straight draw, not just the flush. Without a read on the villain, I give him some credit for one of the made hands he is represnting. (2 pr, straight, flush with the flush being most likely). If hero rivers a 9, he can check/call. River card doesn't help you, and I don't think you are good 1 in 12 times here. |

Re: 99 .25-.50 Scary Turn Bet
I 3-bet this in this position with reads considered. However, even against an unknown table here I think I would 3-bet it out.
That turn card is scary, considering it completes a flush draw and some curious straight draws, which tend to happen at this level. I would say most of the time I would check or check/raise this turn to get some information. River does nothing for you, and people love holding A-rag at .25/.50 all day until it magically appears. A good percentage of the time your not ahead even if you hit your 9, so I would say watch any aggression on the turn or river here, especially from people who are just waking up. |
