simo_8ball 0 Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Easy check/shove. Sucks if he checks behind on the turn, but I think he keeps up the aggression with a reasonable number of hands. If you think he will check behind fairly often then just pot it. It's kinda read dependent, but I love checkraising. Link to post Share on other sites
BudBundy 0 Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 I am for Check raising as well.I don't mind a free card on turn. We are %50 against 7654. Link to post Share on other sites

We are %50 against 7654.That was what sealed the deal: we were 50/50 against the naked straight, and if he checks behind, it's no big deal either (since we're still only drawing).I checked, he potted, and I shoved.River bricked and he rolled over the straight.He **IMMEDIATLY** sat out and left (that, more than anything else, put me on tilt) Link to post Share on other sites

iggymcfly 0 Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Yeah, I think the turn's good. You could definitely get a fold from 62 or something here and that would be in his range with his preflop stats. Do you usually c/c this flop though? I think a lead's probably better as you have no reason to think that your opponents hit and you still have enough equity to call a raise with the backdoor draws and the ability to bluff a board pair.

sabes99 0 Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 i think the best play would have been to avoid this situation by potting the flopreally, you could go pretty much either way on the turn, i prefer leading out, but that's just me Link to post Share on other sites

I think a lead's probably better as you have no reason to think that your opponents hit and you still have enough equity to call a raise with the backdoor draws and the ability to bluff a board pair.I usually lead this flop into a PFR. This time, however, the CO was a habitual c-bettor (a fatal flaw in PLO), so I checked with the intention of raising him.However when the button folded and I found myself heads-up against the weak preflop raiser, I spontaneously decided to take a slower approach and just call. I felt I could make the right decision on the turn. Link to post Share on other sites
