    Default A brainless calldown

    Very first hand at the table. Never played button before. It felt right at the time, but this has got to be way -ev, doesn't it? Should I bet/fold turn and if he calls turn, c/c the river or bet/fold?

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ Hero (5 handed)

    SB ($72.66)
    Hero ($50)
    UTG ($50.70)
    MP ($51.90)
    Button ($51.25)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with Ts, Tc. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
    2 folds, Button calls $0.50, SB (poster) completes, Hero raises to $2, Button calls $2, SB folds.

    Flop: ($5.50) Jc, 3c, 4c (2 players)
    Hero bets $4, Button calls $4.

    Turn: ($13.50) 6d (2 players)
    Hero checks, Button bets $6.12, Hero calls $6.12.

    River: ($25.74) 2d (2 players)
    Hero checks, Button bets $15.03, Hero calls $15.03.

    Final Pot: $55.80

    Heres a similar hand to yours. See if you can spot the differences. I will post again later, I gotta go to school now.

    The river in Renton's hand is clearly a blocker.
