Well, villian did the old check-call/check-call/bet line. If he's a good player it means that he's probably got top pair. If he's a donk it means that he may have made 2 pair on the river. I call a donk and I raise a good player.

[car ramrod]

If he is loose passive, I'd say he probably hit his 2nd pair on the river, but I would still call. Would anyone fold this? I guess depends on how strong your read is.

[DeadRed]

I would need him to table his straight, set or 2 pr before I fold. I like the above line: Call if he's been showing any 2 card and raise if he's been showing quality hands.

I think straight when I see this. From the small blind people are capable of showing you anything, which is kind of scary. A 67 suited or even offsuit is not unlikely here to me. He check/calls until he hits on the river, in my opinion, however im still calling with my jacks.

*grunching*


Ok I would be a wuss and call it down on the river. Surely if he had a decent hand then he would have check raised it on the river, so I'm pretty certain my JJ are good, but on the thinking that if I raise and I've got him beat he'll fold, why risk the extra two bets if he reraises back.

To be honest, I can't see what he could have, though would probably put him on a small pair or junk, just trying to put out a blocking bet.

Let me know if my assumptions here are way out.

[xenthebrain]

usually when I see this, this is a bluff
with no reads I would just call, when I am suspicious about anything I raise/call.

[droolie]

Call. Are you ahead 65% of the time? I don't think so.

Results:

SB has 5h 4d (two pair, fives and fours).
Button doesn't show.

Outcome: SB wins 8 BB. </font>


Another hand from same villain. I think I was steaming from the earlier hand. I didn't play this hand very well. But after the last hand I thought he could have anything.

I think this line is good. You can't do anything else... call him down. He's probably weak and fishing. When he comes alive I suspect he's got you beat.
