Am I a fool not to push?
Prima 1/2 NL
Hero: $600 Villain: $251 (No read. I know that he's a winning player) Hero is dealt: 4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Villain is BB and I am the only caller. Flop: 4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] He bets $5 (pot), I re-raise $15. He intacalls. Turn: 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] giving me the boat. He bets 1/2 pot. I just call planning to C/R the river. River: 8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] He checks, I bet $40. He raises to $100 straight. I just call. |

Re: Am I a fool not to push?
yes you are.
he probably has a 7 or a straight. he definitely doesnt have 2 7s otherwise he wouldnt have checked preflop. the just call is super weak, an easy push. |

He bets 1/2 pot. I just call planning to C/R the river. [/ QUOTE ] It looks from the rest of the action that you have position, so I don't follow this logic. Raise the turn. Given that you didn't, yeah a river push seems pretty obvious. |

Re: Am I a fool not to push?
I don't think a winning player will call a 3bet push on the river with a 1-card straight on this board. If you push and get called, I think you get shown a bigger boat.
As others have said, though, raising the turn would have been good; then the pot will be of a size on the river that you can get all-in and get called by a straight. |

*RESULTS*
During the hand I was convinced he had a bigger boat but in retrospect a turn raise and a river all-in is appropriate.
This time I just called and won against the one card straight. I just couldnt see anyone playing a onecardstraight this way. Villain shows: K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] |
