If you're gonna call the turn, you can't fold that river. Oh and I'd raise the flop a little just to see where you stand. If you don't improve or come up against a lot of resistance, it's easy to let go of.

Why?

[splashpot]

Because the ace doesn't change anything. If you're behind, you're behind to a better ten or a flush. I don't see the point in calling 95, then folding to 150 when nothing changed.

Why do you think I folded?

Huh? I assume you folded because you thought you were behind to a better ten or a flush. But if that's the case, shouldn't you fold on the turn?

FWIW, I probably call the river bet.

The only thing you see is yourself OOP in a bigger pot than you want with a [censored] holding.

What's wrong with check-folding this flop?

[handsome]

I agree with splashpot.

It dawned on me last night, as I lie awake in bed, why it is that I check the river rather than bet. And why it is that I make the river call....

[tigerite]

I probably call the river here too. I might lead the turn as well.
