KosinTrouble 0 Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 I was at the table for a while, been raising preflop lots with any decent starting hand.just curious if I should have raised him on the turn, or if the reraise at the end was good. Thinking back, I think if I would have min raised him after the turn, he would have still called and I could have gotten an extra bet out of him.i know the river looked scary with all the straight draws, but I know my read on him was right, either mid-upper pair or A9.Anyways feedback is always wanted by this new fish, be it good or negative feedback, I want it all.PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (9 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.comHero (Button) ($4.67)SB ($3)BB ($0.85)UTG ($3.45)UTG+1 ($4.77)MP1 ($2.45)MP2 ($2.22)MP3 ($5)CO ($2.95)Preflop: Hero is Button with 4, 4UTG calls $0.02, 5 folds, Hero calls $0.02, 1 fold, BB checksFlop: ($0.07) 5, 2, 9(3 players)BB checks, UTG bets $0.02, Hero calls $0.02, 1 foldTurn: ($0.11) 4(2 players)UTG bets $0.06, Hero calls $0.06River: ($0.23) 6(2 players)UTG bets $0.16, Hero raises to $0.32, 1 foldTotal pot: $0.55 | Rake: $0Results below: Hero didn't show 4, 4 (nothing).Outcome: Hero won $0.55Kosin Trouble Link to post Share on other sites
Ninja Ace 1 Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 can't see the suits... but unless if there's 4 to a flush on the turn this is an easy pot sized raise... that's why ur in such an ugly spot on the river when 4 to a straight comes out because you have trouble getting a call from worse hands since you aren't the aggressor.

KingJames 11 Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Yes, raise the turn for value.Between .15 and .19 probably. Link to post Share on other sites

He said he couldnt see the suits, so I mentioned the suit.Then because a possible straight was showing and because I was not the agressor on the turn and that was why i didnt get action after the flop at least thats what I think he was meaning, thats the way I understood it, please correct me if I am wrong.Sorry still new to the posting/forum thing, usually a lurker but really want to get moving and increase my poker knowledge. Thanks for being patient with me...Kosin Trouble Link to post Share on other sites

Hector Cerif 0 Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Although this is may be results-oriented thinking- doesn't it seem like had we raised the turn in this hand we wouldn't have achieved maximum value?My first instinct was to raise the turn as well, but villain winds up donk-betting river and folding to a min raise- would he have called a raise on the turn?

I think if the question is - what should our line be on the turn, we should ignore whatever happens after that.In this case, I think we can usually raise on the turn. Lots of scare cards can come on the river that hurt our action. Betting forces draws to become more expensive, and if villain improves to 2 pair on the river, we are able to build a bigger pot. Plus we're ahead here almost always and it's 1c/2c so betting with strong hands should be standard. Opponent dependent of course. Link to post Share on other sites

mtdesmoines 3 Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 We hit a setget stacks in ASAPWe're good here +++++++90% of the time, and we need to get money in to get value when we're this strong. And in a limped pot, villain could show up w 2 pair, a cynical top pair, nutso, whatever. Establish chipflow potwards. Link to post Share on other sites

I don't really see a downside.It's 2NL and you're going to be playing for a set in most of the pots you raise as well... the players are so bad they worry about their cards much more than pot size so your ability to get stacks be it a limped pot or raised pot remains virtually the same.

trystero 0 Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 PF is a clear raise regardless of stakes. There's no reason to limp behind here especially since we're deep.. Link to post Share on other sites
