Default Re: Value bet gone wrong

eh...if he's thinking, i think that check turn/bet river as a bluff is usually pretty bad. it depends on river of course, but in general, i think most tags will double barrel instead of check turn/bet river as a bluff.

now if he's vb-ing, thats completely different. but sometimes i'll float these boards and ill certainly bet when i hit.

yeah, I generally will too as in 95% of the time. in this case I opted against it.

I mean, the board is so ridiculously dry, wtf is he check calling with there?

That turn card is typically a pretty good one for any overpair, TPTK etc. so if he wanted more money in the pot, it seems as if he would have bet it.

My thought in it's simplest form, was that betting the turn would take the pot down there and checking might net me another bet or two if he pairs up or w/e.
