    Hand 1: Wow wtf that turn raise is awful. Just call.

    Hand 2: Well played.

    In hand #1, if I call the turn how much are you willing to call on the river?

    I thought I would raise for info and dump it if I'm beat.

    Did you expect jupee to only call or raise with a queen/flush when you raised? That would be an ultra -ev bet.

    I was expecting the Q/flush to raise. Juppee was Agg enough to raise me and let me know I'm beat.

    I don't like a "call for info" personally.. it usually means you're folding hands you beat and get called/raised by hands that beat you..

    This is a cool thread for the sort of a raise in #1:
    http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...ic.php?t=33488

    The raise is ok if jupee calls with a lot of worse hands, but I like aislephives comments, and how much I'd call on the river depends how jupee plays a big hand like a Q/flush on the river. Lots of these types overbet because they wanted you to raise the turn so then it's an easy river fold. If it's a normal bet, I guess I'd call 1/3 to 1/2 pot, not too sure though, in the heat of the moment probably I'd call more, but maybe it's a leak.
