Looks okay, but your river VB is too small, bet at least $100

OK flop and turn. On the river I think you should bet more. How much more depending on whether or not you want to get away if he pushes.

If stack sizes weren't so awkward I'd bet ~100

I didn't notice stack sizes.

I think I like a push here, now. Represent a busted draw.

You guys are so much better than me it's sad. I was playing scared, thinking he was slowplaying a set or something. I never took the time to put my opponent on a hand such as AQ, but I agree I missed alot of value here. Nobody checks a set twice.

Kilillan · #6 04-21-2006, 03:56 AM

I would full pot or push.

You make like 9 posts a day, how are you not getting better

Woolygimp · #7 04-21-2006, 03:57 AM

I'm actually doing fairly good now. Definately improved alot. I've watched pretty much all of the card runner videos, and you guys are giving great advice.

Push its a psb, I dont see him checking twice with a set on that board.

He could easily figure you or a busted draw.

As played you missed value.

this is a good spot for a reasonably sized river ai overbet. like it was said you can represent a busted draw/AK.
