Re: Bad positioning vs. Leader on Flop
Its fine to say, I am too passive etc etc, but its important to understand WHY raising is correct here.
Anyone with a flush or straight draw, hell most people with two business cards in their hands are not leaving such a big pot so you need to raise with the equity edge. If you lose a couple limpers this is fantastic especially if they held a heart. You want to take down big pots as quickly as possible, you raise here not only for value but also to potentially increase pot equity. |

Re: Bad positioning vs. Leader on Flop
In a huge pot like this. He should be raising either the flop or the turn.
Any draw is going to call because of the pot on the flop, so a raise is for value. On the turn, the only hand(s) he loses to is AA (1x) and AT (3x?) and everyone else who is putting money into the pot is dead. The river bet is about as standard as it gets, and I am certain it is shipped his way. However the way he plays it, he wins the least amount with a premium hand in a huge pot where people will call just cause the pot is big. |
