Re: Live 6/12, A9s - keep betting the draw?
 

can i interject the main point that a lot of people are seeming to forget, which is that we don't have anything?

Check and make a crying call when you river a 9.

Interesting. The hand example on pg. 174 is very similar to this situation. If SB is indeed a passive old lady, maybe your turn bet does have fold equity. I don't know, I still like a free card here.

fnord, i'm not sure really what you're talking about in several of the posts you've made in this thread, and i can't tell if you're being facetious or serious, which probably would affect my feelings - if i knew which one it was [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Checked to me and I bet for value.

This implies you should c-bet the turn for value, right?

What is it about this board that scares you? I probably bet simply because no one else has shown strength. You want to get rivered by some schmuck that would've folded to a measly turn bet? In most 6/12 situations this is easy bet for me...

I'm serious and disappointed that several regulars would play this so weak. Putting anyone on an Eight at this point is silly. Running bad?

the flop is freakin 883.

3 people called.

wtf are they calling with?

even the dumbest 10/20 players in my game arent calling this flop with 2 random cards. the games may be good, but they arent THAT good.

someone will often have an 8 and you get CRed. Also, your FD equity is never as good as usual on a paired board. You aren't going to win UI. Take the free card.
