bet?

What could you possibly do other than bet here?

[mxiu]

and if you're raised?

[badgers]

super standard bet.... i doubt you're getting raised here very often at all, the line makes no sense if he raises. I'd probs call for the split/ catch retarded bluffs, although if you think he's nitty/dumb enough to play 55 that way you could maybe fold. Really not something yu should be worried about though, you will be raised so infrequently here.

no one is taking the 25% fold to cbet into play? i have like 3k hands on him and 25% is horrendously low..

[badgers]

when they're that nitty postflop stats will take an awfully long time to get close. 3% calling raises = 100 hand sample max (there will be less because of squeezes preflop etc)... Obviously you're going to get an awful lot of variance in that sort of sample, although it is interesting and suggests that he probs has a low pfr and likes to call cbets with low PPs/ maybe float sometimes but the sample size is still not great.

Anyway it's not even a cbet! And this is a multiway pot, so it doesn't have huge relevance...

Admittedly there's not a huge amount in his range that will call a bet, but if you c/c you're basically hoping for him to turn TT into a bluff. I think he calls with KQ more than he bets with TT, so bet.

If he was floating he bets the turn so either hes stupid or has SD value. He shouldn't have a set cause if he did he'd be liek OMG A FD I HAVE TO PROTECT MY HAND. So here on the river he has some form of SD value or hes a moron. So thus easy bet to try and get value from w.e stupid thing hes got.

[mxiu]

i ended up betting 10 on the river to "sucker" KQ and ended up calling a raise to 35 for him to show 88

[Im_new]

wait, if he isn't folding to many cbets, shouldn't we second barrel the turn? Isn't there value in that in this case?

[texa8]

i dont think you can get away from the hand on the river..

given stats you can b/f on the river without A or K showing up, but its all pretty standard surely..

wait, if he isn't folding to many cbets, shouldn't we second barrel the turn? Isn't there value in that in this case?

i agree with this... generally if hes calling 75% of hands surely we are ahead of his range a large portion of the time and should bet the turn..

[Parasurama]

meh but the J is not a great card to double barrel and that 75% number is likely unreliable

[wakeup]

thoughts on betting the turn??
stnd check cos were not gettin called by many worse hands?

[Miffed22001]

id have bet river same as you but wouldnt have called the river raise as recently any line that doenst make sense always seems to be the nuts played poorly by somebody who is likely not a winning player.
Probably results orientated though!

me no speaky english

[jessyj]

bet 25

[Benzooka]

river bet 20/fold. Pocket pairs are the biggest part of his range; he either has a set or is "calling your bluff". 10 seems like an obvious but bad valuetown - it misses value and I don't think it widens his calling range. It actually looks a little stronger to me.
