bdc30 0 Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 I would have raised his turn bet by the size of the pot.You have the current nuts, a decent low draw should one come on the river, and a re-draw at a heart flush.I think you're good for at the very least 1/2 the pot here.

yeffy 0 Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 I wouldn't be so scared of the backdoor flush. I think either a potsize bet or 3/4 pot bet on the turn protects your hand slightly against the multiple draws present, you have the current nuts with backup so I'm looking for action, a check raise may even be in order.The river is trickier here. I think your hand is too strong to give up on. The flush present is backdoor so it isn't a certainty that it is there. The presence of a low and specifically a wheel make the check tough since it is easy for someone to blow you off the pot here. I like betting out and potentially folding to a potsize raise. By betting you have the possibility of moving someones small flush off the pot or getting a fold from a weak low that was counterfitted with the deuce (ie: A-2-7-x). In a 3 way pot or more I think a check / fold is in order here, but heads up I go for the bet. Link to post Share on other sites
