bet the turn ..

Re: 25NL OESFD against agressive idiot
 

im pretty sure on the turn hes letting go of even some aces, maybe even AK, if hes disciplined and calling with twp pair + draws...obv shoving with sets/straight, maybe AJ

Re: 25NL OESFD against agressive idiot
 

Looks good other than the flop bet size. If ever there's a reason for a full PSB its with a big combo draw. Turn seems fine given your read and of course you are committed.

Re: 25NL OESFD against agressive idiot
 

Bet turn or c/c, I don't think c/r makes a whole lot of sense at this point. Anyone that likes c/r want to explain why?

Re: 25NL OESFD against agressive idiot
 

If he's that aggressive does anyone like a C/R on the flop?

Re: 25NL OESFD against agressive idiot
 

the problem with the check raise on the turn, is that is a scare card, so when he bets, hes probably very strong since he wouldn't bet a jack and probably would just check behind with a flush/straight draw. that leaves some 2 pair hands that an ace completed, as well as soemthing like AQ, AK( no diamonds)

Re: 25NL OESFD against agressive idiot
 

an ace will never fold here. You have FE against like...KJ, QJ, TT, 88.

This heavily depends on stats, but it's probably not too bad. I call this turn alot though.

If you're gonna raise, just shove, no point in leaving money behind.

Re: 25NL OESFD against agressive idiot
 

considering the information you gave I like a c/r on the flop here, not the turn. On the turn I'd just call that.

Re: 25NL OESFD against agressive idiot
 

i typically lead the turn. the Ace is a great scare card, you may offer yourself better odds than he would've given, etc.

after you check, i like calling his bet. he's offering nice odds, he's laggy and therefore not likely to fold to a c/r. i like c/r-ing vs. a more solid player and slightly deeper stacks.

so, i would bet the turn. given that you didn't, i would c/c his bet.

Re: 25NL OESFD against agressive idiot
 

No FE on the turn, I hate your push.
bet turn, and fold if he raises enough to chase you from drawing. You have a good hand on the flop, but not on the turn.

Re: 25NL OESFD against agressive idiot
 

Yeah, that $26.70 raise (the third bet on the turn) pretty much kills whatever enthusiasm I have for drawing to non-nut outs. I'm spending time these days telling myself "there's plenty of time, he's not standing up, you can find a better spot" against dudes like this.

Re: 25NL OESFD against agressive idiot
 

Bet flop for value,

Bet turn for scarecard FE/semibluff.

and bet more on the flop...bloat the pot for your draw. I think checkraising anywhere in this hand is horrible.

Re: 25NL OESFD against agressive idiot
 

I think many people in this thread have underestimated the value of a turn c/r given OP's read that villain will call him light on the flop and auto-bet the turn if checked to

I don't know if that ace is the best card to do it on though

Why is C/R horrible? Especially on the turn???
I think he has some FE on hand like kj qj or a OESD T8.
I am not saying that the lead bet on the turn is a bad play because is not, but the C/R will chase away many hands that beat you, qq,tt,jx with x&gt;t.
He may think you flopped a set and fold these hands.
Just my 2 cents.

If he is going to call me down light then I would rather bloat the pot and make my hand and have him pay me off than bluff off my stack as a dog.

The ace is a great card to make a near PSB on because it carries some FE for us, not much less than a check raise IMO. The board is very coordinated and not to mention none of our outs are clean. If we bet turn and he raises then a fold is in order, this hand doesn't have as much equity as it appears to.

Re: 25NL OESFD against agressive idiot
 

Thx guys

but yeah like i said, i knew that if i would check, he would auto bet with anything probably and given he size of his bet on the turn just made me even more inclined to c/r it

makes sense though
flop im strong, and i should probably make a psb
turn, i lose a lot of equity, i understand now

but for further info, against what type of player or what type of conditions it ever a good idea to c/r semi bluff the turn? never?
