Re: High Card Only Showdown

[ QUOTE ]
As for how far down do you go in high card value? I'm a bit more likely to bet with LOWER cards, since they have no showdown value. This is even more likely if I have position, since my opponent has already checked, showing a bit of weakness.

This is not betting for value, though, it is betting as a bluff. I've bluffed rivers with 3 high before (yes, really [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]), but I'm obviously not hoping for a showdown there.

True - that's really what I meant though. I'll use the lower ones to bluff, since I can never win a showdown. If I have AK and it's checked to me, I'm more likely to check it behind and hope - my hand does have at least some showdown value here.
