    Default Raise on the river

    Villain's not very good, don't think he has much here. I checked the river b/c the K might be scary to him and I want him to take a stab. How much should I raise?

    BB ($87.75)
    UTG ($50)
    MP ($49.50)
    CO ($59.60)
    Button ($12.60)

    Preflop: Hero is SB with T, A.

    i disagree; i think hes more likely to call a big raise (w respect to pot) in the first than in the 2nd.

    i like 30 for both

    Never read any stickies or announcements
    hand 1, I'd probably make it 25 or 30ish most of the time

    hand 2, easy shove
  9. #9
    All in and hope he has a flush.

    Edit : I'm all in hand 2 as well
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?
