Some trouble I'm having with WA/WB, weak A OOP

[damaniac]

Good points. Yeah, if he is checking the turn he probably wasn't calling a bet anyway. So as a default do you bet or check/call rivers when that happens?

Incidentally, if you knew the other player was a thinking TAG on the A72 board, you know he'd almost always C/R a pair of decues, 7's, or another PP, but call with the A. So it seems that in that situation, checking the turn is correct, no?

Against the opponent in hand one (the TAG) I bet. He's not value betting/bluffing the river often after having the turn checked through, but he might have hit a pair on the river and he'll call more hands than he'll bet so I go ahead and bet the river. I assume a pretty drawless board as (in both your examples he's not likely to be on a draw, he might think you are in hand 2 though). Otherwise my action depends on the board and of course also the rivercard, but most often I bet. EDIT: He's not paying off with K-high if he's a good tag, since in that case he would probably had bet the turn for a free sd instead.

C/r? He has position. Did you mean raise? Or did you mean we're the pfr with position?

No if we're OOP and he raises, then he bets, we call the flop, HE has to think that we'd C/r those hands and call with an A.

Yeah, I like the check. I think he'll bet all hands he'll pay off a bet with (my guess is he'll bet/fold even more hands than he'll pay off a bet with). Then we'll bet the river hoping he'll pay off with KK-88 as usual.
