I'm having a hard time seeing why you didn't three-bet the flop. Aside from a 4, which isn't that likely, he most likely has a flush draw, a weaker T, or a pp like 88 or something, and maybe ocassionally overcards or something weird like that.

Given that you just called on the flop and checked the turn, I'd check/call the river as I want to induce a busted flush draw to bet. He only needs to have it 1:6.5 times without having caught a K on the river, I think the call is pretty easy.

It looks like a busted flush draw enough times to induce a bluff by check/calling. Since everyone folded to CO's raise I think this calls for a donk bet on the turn when the blank hits.

i normally 3 bet the flop , however, in the last week i got up against some monsters, sets, trips , etc. , so i'm tight agressive passive. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

You know you should 3-bet the flop, don't make adjustments from +ev poker because of negative variance.

you are correct

I agree. You are ahead here and gain control with a 3 bet. If he caps and continues to show aggression then it may be different but I still call down. Opps..wasn't this a river question?

Please, what are you doing to make the hand converter work for PP? I must be doing something idiotic b/c it's not working for me, but I'm just copying and pasting from hand history... any ideas?

AceCraig · #9 07-07-2005, 08:57 PM

you copy and paste the entire hand history. then click convert and it comes out on the other side. Then you copy paste the conversion.

I would bet the turn ( you are likely against a flush draw). Barring a raise on the turn I bet the river.
