another bad river bet-call

[Heisenb3rg]

You should have been more specific, on the LAGTAG.

Against a 2+2er who knows your a 2+2er AND is capable of pulling moves, bet/call all day. He's wayyyyy more likely to be afraid of the A than he is going for a double c/r.

Why not mix up your play? By checking behind KK/QQ/JJ/9x/Tx here and betting some missed draws like QJ, Hearts as well as aces.. You get the best of both worlds.

You get payed off with your A's or you fold the best hand with your draws.
If he's got trip 5's he's gaining no bets every time you have KK/QQ/JJ/Tx/9x which you probabily have close to as often if not more often than a pair of aces.

Now compare this to when you check all of your hands.
He now has a clear bet with trip 5's, and a clear check with Tx, 9x. You let him outplay you by checking your aces here.


Therefore,
I hate a check and I hate a fold. Well played sir.

Especially vs myles who ive seen pull moves on 2+2ers.

The turn I disagree with all of you looking at this from just this hand alone.

But how Ax of hearts fits into your gameplan I believe is pretty inconsequential.. As long as you are betting this turn with good hands/draws/ace high. Sometimes checking the turn with draws/ace high... Then your good.
