I usually just call down with that Q5s hand. I understand that raising is good vs a flushdraw but what else? They dont have the odds to draw to a pair anyway and its quite costly should he have a 9,K or a pp higher than 9. I guess you could make him fold 66,77,88 sometimes.

no way its costly if he has a 9 or a PP (you think he 3bets here, ever?). in fact he may just fold sometimes which would be good.

i think mainly this is good against flush draws and any random bluffing hand that may have 6 outs. he will be incorrectly folding based on the pot size (i think).

Good thinking, I didnt think about position and the free showdown.

my hand is good here too often to fold. the raise was a free showdown raise (if 3bet, i probably fold, but i dont bet the river if he just calls)

Out of curiosity, what turns were u raising...and if it was a blank are u just calling down?

Also, Waffle...u just have to think about what he could be CRing here...Flsh Draw, a 5, 9 or duece, maybe a ragged gutter, small pp, overs to the board...a lot of hands. In situations like this u have to make the percentage play.

I raise for free showdowns a lot, and while it's a good strategic move in certain situations IMO it's main value comes from metagame implications

15.5 mins in. You open with 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] OTB, unknown BB calls.

Flop is 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. He check-raises, you call.

Turn is T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. He bets, you raise and he calls.

The river is 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. He checks and you bet.

The river bet seem really thin to me, no?

Only if he has a better 9 or a low flush draw. Sure it might be pretty thin, as J9 or Q9 seems possible.

EDIT: just watched the hand, he had K9s, little higher than I thought, Id prolly tree bet that from the BB.

28:30

You open 7s7d OTB, 30/16/.7 over 260 SB ccs, BB folds.
Flop is JsAsQd, check bet call
Turn is the 5c, sb checks and you bet

I usually give up after the flop.
