Giving up too early
2/4 full
Semibluffs don't seem to work at all for me at full tables. Hero has JJ UTG+2 calls, Hero raises, BB calls Flop AQ7 rainbow Checked to me, I bet, they both call Turn A they check to me, I check. River 9, checked through again. BB flips 66, UTG+2 has KQ. Final pot $20 Not sure if UTG+2 folds his hand here. I don't know how to play anymore. Tricky players are really messing with my mind. |

Re: Giving up too early
Hi Joe I don't think a turn bet is a semi bluff either your ahead or behind and the action up to this point indicates your ahead. I would bet the turn no reason to give someone who is behind a free card if I got check raised I would probably let it go if you get called I would check it through on the river.

Re: Giving up too early
Well, as a side note this wouldn't be a semi bluff situation - you have little chance to improve your hand at this point. Semi bluffing can work at 2/4 full - it just depends on your opponents and the reads you have on them. Don't semi bluff vs. known calling stations, do semi bluff vs. passive prone to fold players or even TAG's that will lay down to a bet or raise.
On this hand, I think you played it fine - again depending on your reads. I will actually play this one differently on the turn depending on reads - if I think there is any chance they fold then I bet (although I am less inclined to bet against 2 opponents than heads up). If you get check raised you can lay down. If you don't think anyone is going anywhere - then your play was fine. So betting the turn vs. UTG+2 is read dependent. |
