Hero bets $4

I like 7 or 8. hard for A to fold, passive aces up might call behind.

I bet 7, fold to raise.

I don't see what blocking has to do with this though. Do you think he has a flush? AQ? I'd say he's more likely to have AJ/AT here.

You think its a value bet, not a blocking bet? Whats the real difference on this board neway. No one likes c/c (what i did)

Riposte · #9 10-06-2005, 01:23 PM

Yeah I see AT. So for me it's not really a blocking bet, because I know he has something. More of a value bet.

But if I check and he pushes or bets huge, I wouldn't know if he had me beat or what, so I guess I'm saving myself from hands that beat me?

I like your train of thought here Xorbie. At the time I was thinking this was a great time to c/c missed flush draw, however, in retrospect, seeing how passive villain is, I think I lose alot of value from a solo ace taking this line. I like the value/blocking river bet more and more.
