Because of the weird blind situation I probably raise to 7 or 8 here, but that's kind of a minor thing.

Against an unknown I probably just check here.

[martindcx1e]

check is fine

[pokerfan]

c/r on the flop then checking again didn't sound to me like he had a monster, so i'd bet $32 on the turn and fold to any big reraise. As played, i guess we beat his hand the whole way and definitely bet half the pot on the river . your line was way too weak though considering that he checked twice already in later streets.

[Miffed22001]

id bet the river because i think your opp tried to steal it then figured you had a hand.
I make it quite small to encourage a call, even a c/push if we read really good, but i doubt your opponent checks this river without knowing youll call a c/r which i doubt you will.

Bet the turn and river for value. Checking turn after checkraising flop is often giving up. I think people often do this with an underpair/air thinking you have missed overs.

[martindcx1e]

i could see Tx playing flop/turn like villain did. on the river i just don't know what is calling a bet, and i still think there's a chance of a c/r.

there is but if we know opp will do this with a medium range then we know we can call flop c/r and steal on river, so we need to bet.

What worse hands call a turn bet?

none for me, but we need to bet river to be able to float the c/r with ATC so that betting the river folds out all hands that beat us but cant call a river bet (assuming opp doesnt call river obviously)

agreed warpe. maybe 78 but it's quite a stretch.

Why didn't you just commit on the flop?

b/c villain's running a set line

ya we don't 1/2 stack like you fnord

[Renton]

trivially easy river bet.

i like just calling the flop, but 3betting is definitely plus ev.

probably his point

i checked behind.

[Renton]

did you pwn his trips?

[Warpe]

did you pwn his quads?

fyp

fyp

lol nice

[Fnord]

For what it's worth, I got pwned for $600 last weekend. Got it all-in against Aces 5 or 6 times, usually with the worst of it. On top of that I ran over $200 below expectation on all-ins. Throw in some meh aggression and a 150bb deep hand with a donk that out-played me, bleh...

[martindcx1e]

fnord has downswings?

[Renton]

its still a bet

[Setzy]

Man I hate seeing results before I post.

I'm still betting this river for $35-40, because I always equate 3 checks to mean the villain has pretty much nothing.

I'm pretty sure I could find a fold to a raise on the river, but the villain is unknown! We are giving unknowns a range of a set!? This guy could be messing with your obvious button "steal" and not reraising some high pp. Nice job saving money on this one I guess, did you have some sort of timing tell or other info besides unknown villain?

[Warpe]

its still a bet

Agree, b/f.

[Warpe]

No. I just got spooked by the board pairing 'cause if he was betting TP he had at least trips and if he had a set...

I'm just glad another A didn't fall.

[Renton]

honestly i'd bet queens here too, and maybe even jacks
