I bet the end. I think many people would just bet out with a king here b/c they'd be afraid you'd check behind. When he checks, I put him on a Queen or a busted straight draw. I bet for value...if checkraised and he's sane...fold.

Jeff [/ QUOTE ] i didnt bet the end because i didnt think there was a hand sb could call with that i could beat. because of my turn raise(flush card), i could see sb check calling with a K or a small flush. i was just curious if there were any awful decisions made by me because i was accused of playing the hand "horribly"( im not looking for a pat on the back or anything, just a reality/sanity check) |

raise preflop for crying out loud. if anything, your point about the blinds having folded last time you raised here is reason to raise again because they will be frustrated with you and more likely to play back.

I can't see not betting the river with the second nuts the way the action went here.

Lol, i read that X's as the King of spades, which is pretty funny since the Ks was the first card that flopped. I'm going to stop posting right after i wake up [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: am i suck at holdem? 20-40 hand
You played the hand fine on every street. Whether or not you raise preflop in this spot will not matter in the long run, although i will raise preflop in this situation 95% of the time. Also using the flop checkraise to set up the turn raise is also a fine play. And the river, your reasoning is right that he could easily have the king, since him calling your turn raise on the flush card shows alot of strength, And if he doesnt have the king he is very likely to be drawing and missed, so your river bet will not be called by a lesser hand enough to be profitable anyways in my opinion.

Re: am i suck at holdem? 20-40 hand
preflop play is kinda dumb
postflop you played it good... id check down the river against most in a live 20/40. |
