    Default Incorect Thinking?

    Just played this hand,

    ***** Hand History for Game 3193838357 *****
    NL Texas Hold'em $10 Buy-in + $1 Entry Fee Trny:18241622 Level:9 Blinds(250/500) - Tuesday, December 13, 10:36:09 EDT 2005
    Table Table 67239 (Real Money)
    Seat 5 is the button
    Total number of players : 3
    Seat 3: BlkViper ( $4235 )
    Seat 5: ALLINGREG ( $3330 )
    Seat 8: m52183 ( $435 )
    Trny:18241622 Level:9
    Blinds(250/500)
    ** Dealing down cards **
    Dealt to BlkViper [ 2d 9d ]
    ALLINGREG calls [500].
    m52183 folds.
    BlkViper checks.
    ** Dealing Flop ** [ 6s, 7d, Qd ]
    BlkViper checks.
    ALLINGREG checks.
    ** Dealing Turn ** [ Tc ]
    BlkViper checks.
    ALLINGREG bets [500].
    BlkViper calls [500].
    ** Dealing River ** [ 5h ]
    BlkViper bets [2400].
    ALLINGREG is all-In.

    I figured with the short stack so low, and a lack of aggression by the villian (who had played pretty soild) I could push him off his hand, TPWK, busted straight or flush draw. It would have been better to do this on the turn I think. I think the corect play would have been to check/fold the turn maybe? Thoughts about the play please. Did the villan make a correct call?

    Results in white below


    BlkViper shows [ 2d, 9d ] high card queen.
    ALLINGREG shows [ Jh, Qh ] a pair of queens.
    BlkViper wins 70 chips from side pot #1 with high card queen.
    ALLINGREG wins 6910 chips from the main pot with a pair of queens.

    Turn call is fine due to the number of outs. River push is bad. Wait for a better spot.

    Turn call is borderline (12 outs=3.83-1 , pot odds=3.5-1). Check/fold on river - opp obviously liked the turn card.

    If you want to bet on the river, make it 1000. If he'll fold to 2400, he'll fold to 1000. Saves you some chips when he comes back at you. And sometimes a smaller bet is scarier than a big bet - looks like you want a call. The 2400 looks like a steal.

    No way he folds his Q here. Probably folds a T.
    Exception:
    1) He's very weak
    AND
    2) You have slowplayed and pushed the nuts on the river before
    AND
    3) He noticed

    The only reasonable hand you are repping is 89s, since if you hit the straight on the turn with the flush draw out you would raise.

    And actually, I might raise preflop. What the hell is he limping with 3-way on the button? Call here is OK, too, but your river bluff is classic dark tunnel.

    any think of jus tpushing preflop?
  6. #6
    Call the turn
    Check\Fold the river

    Get rid of the incredibly small stack player who has less then 1BB.
