sennin 0 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Why bet so small on the turn? I'd bet more like 6 on the turn, it will give you a better idea of what you're up against if you get called.I'd probably call the river but isap Link to post Share on other sites
Bubba83 0 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 A few questions come to mind:Why are you only sitting with $19.50?Why did you bet so small on the turn?Why would you hesitate to call the river one bit? Link to post Share on other sites

loosekanen 0 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 with your stack i'd be pushing, not calling. it looks desperate enough to get a call from someone holding 68 which is definitely a possibility here. you need more chips man. at LEAST 50bbs. Link to post Share on other sites

There's advantages to it, but I wont get too much into that.As played you gotta at least call, making the thin value raise/push is also an option, but I'd most likely just call here if you dont know where your at. I'd assume that he's either got you beat or has a busted draw so calling >> value raise without reads IMO.Bet more on the turn. Link to post Share on other sites

However, at these stakes, some players can call almost any amount with anything resembling any kind of hand, but when THEY make a strong bet they will have one pair (no matter how pretty) beat 100% of the time.

I'm not really a fan of raising on the river because you have no idea where you're at as nobody has defined their hand. The only point of raising here is if you think you can get called by a worse hand. But you have no way to narrow his range down so it's kind of a shot in the dark. Link to post Share on other sites

TPTK is probably good, although he could have donked you. Don't bet so little on the turn. Link to post Share on other sites
mvdgaag 0 Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 I bet more preflop (because of position) or occasionally go for a checkraise if there is a lot of PF raising by the people in late position.I would cbet flop (2/3 pot or so). You only have CO yet to actYour turnbet is way to small... As played up to turn bet around 6 here.The river is an easy call... Because you played the hand so weak he could be doing this with any piece of the board.GL Link to post Share on other sites
Craigdog 0 Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 It looks like a missed flush draw to me, as played I would just call but you should have bet about $6 on turn as it's is a drawing board... $1.5 on the turn is so cheap for a draw that you might as well have checked!!!!!

whiterice714 0 Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 personally if i'm villain i'm sticking around w/ a gutter ball or looking for my second pair for that weak turn bet about 90% of the time... that's better than 6:1 odds on your moneythere's no way i'd give you credit for the A... & i'd likely bet a rivered 2 pair the same way... sorry for sounding redundant, but i think $5-$6 on the turn was the correct play... as this played out, i'd probably call the river bet & hope my TPTK was good...
