Two turn checks
Same opponents, different reasons for checking the turn. Also looking for comments on Hand 2's river.
Hand 1: BB is the LAG, CO (poster) is the fish. Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is MP with T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. CO posts a blind of $7. <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, CO (poster) calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, BB calls. Flop: (6.80 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, CO folds, BB calls. Turn: (5.40 BB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> BB checks, Hero checks. River: (5.40 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB calls. Final Pot: 9.40 BB Hand 2: Button is the LAG, UTG is the fish. Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. UTG calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Button calls, SB completes, Hero checks. Flop: (4 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, UTG calls, Button calls, SB calls. Turn: (4 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> SB checks, Hero checks, UTG checks, Button checks. River: (4 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>... |

Re: Two turn checks
I bet the turn in #1.
I'm undecided about the river bet in #2. |

Re: Two turn checks
Hand 1: Good. Don't bet if you will be unsure of how to handle a checkraise. This applies here. Villian will probably bet a busted draw on the river after you check so you will still get the same amount from his draw.
Hand 2: I probably check this flop against 3 opponents because I won't ever pick up the flop with my bet. Betting isn't bad though as you might fold a J or 6. Turn check is fine. River bet is perfect. |

Re: Two turn checks
i bet the turn in the first hand - the more i see the description LAG used in these forums the more i ignore it - in the 5/10 game i dont think i'm getting pushed off the better hand when my turn bet gets raised - i figure a turn raise means i am woefully and perhaps irretrievably behind so i fold
i'm not a big fan of betting the flop in hand 2 - one thing i hate about it is that i dont want to bet the flop and check the turn thereby announcing that my draw hasnt arrived stripsqueez - chickenhawk |

For me, it would be tough to fold to a turn check raise in Hand 1, although you are, of course, dead to AT or AJ, A9, A4 if thats what they are check raising u with in Hand 1... |

Re: Two turn checks
For those of you who say I shouldn't bet the flop in Hand 2; given that I did, do you bet the turn? Or are you check-calling flop and check-calling turn?

Re: Two turn checks
I might stab at this pot if the flop got checked thru. Otherwise, I'm check-calling.

Re: Two turn checks
do more people stab at boards like these when the flop gets checked through? Way too drawful for my taste to think i have a fair chance of taking the pot right there at a loose 5/10 party table. Am i wrong?
