Willing 2 Die 0 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 but just consider what being wrong is going to cost you vs what happens when all of your reads are exactly spot on and you're still in a super marginal situation IF all of the variables are in your favor.thats what i don't like about the call on the turn. I think you got very lucky in this spot. You could have easily lost $200 with an 8 high flush on a four flush board. Link to post Share on other sites
Willing 2 Die 0 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 So what was his reaction when you called him? I'm gonna take a guess and say he wasn't happy. Link to post Share on other sites
dscoot 0 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 good job, man. From your description I was thinking the veg las had a made hand on the flop, most likely the straight. So it makes sense to play it how u did. My only fault in these situations is probably folding to this river bet a couple of times when i shouldnt. I partially follow my reads like this but seem to shut down be4 the end too often. Guess its just practice and experience, huh? Cuz it seems to me your #1 accomplishment in this hand is your river call. And oh if u can fit in a river min-raise here, knowing that A) he had the straight, B) musta gave him a lower flush too , u would be genious Link to post Share on other sites
TeeSludge 0 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 If we are villain what is our optimal river line? Also, if villain in this hand checked this river what were you planning on doing? Link to post Share on other sites
Royal_Tour 0 Posted January 10, 2008 Author Share Posted January 10, 2008 Also, if villain in this hand checked this river what were you planning on doing?Good question.. I actually do bet it. Mostly because I'm confident that i'm ahead, and I really dont like showing my hands at showdown Link to post Share on other sites

Luke00016 0 Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 bump cuz acid knight said my logic here was sound.Since people are bumping stuff left and right at the moment, here's a question.Do you still agree with your play here?I'm inclined to follow Acid's logic about needing multiple reads to be spot on giving you a marginal win vs. being wrong anywhere and taking a big loss.Also, since you put him on basically one hand (and the 7h on the river confirming he wasn't playing a combo draw), do you consider min-raising this river?

But when i'm wrong, I get burned. So yea, this one was spot on, would i do it again? lol I dont know.The more i look at this hand, the more i think. its a toss up that i have to think. he could have a set/2 pair/straight.. or he could have a straight combo small flushi based my odds that there were more comibinations of sets 2 pair and straights than 1 particular combo of straight/and flush Link to post Share on other sites
