Did I play this right on the river? I don't remember my reads on BB because this is a hand from a couple of weeks ago I just came across it while looking over my hands.

From the looks of how he played he couldn't have been anything of a good player. And I almost surely remember that he was loose.

Should I have given up after the BB 3-bet?

Pot to big to fold there.

i'd have just called the river. nothing really scary on the board to make this river bet with that our TPTK is good and everyone else has folded.

just call the river. BB could have anything so maybe 2pair, set of 5s, straight. why did he wake up on the river?

Duffman · #5 05-22-2005, 01:19 PM

He ended up getting his set of 5's on the river and took down the pot.

I think I played it right I just wasn't sure about the river.

Hmm, I'd say call the river. I don't think he is betting a worse hand into the field on the river so just call.
