Sunday Mil (530) hand: lost post flop bvb
 

I didnt really have reads, I haven't been at this table too long. I honestly wasn't sure if I should cbet this flop, it felt weird. Comments on flop bet vs check and river mostly, but all streets appreciated.

i don't mind a limp here pf with stacks. as played fold turn fold river. pf raise puts you in this crappy spot as far as c-betting goes.

Is bet/folding the flop bad?

probably not, but it didnt seem like too good a flop to cbet especially when my hand couldnt take that heat and has some equity still.

on the turn, i felt at the time that i could profitably call even though i prob. could rep a ten...i just felt like after checking flop hed think I was FOS a lot and call me a lot lighter.

On the river (shouldve included this in the OP), he insta-bet. I thought it was most heavily weighted to a ten or air, but he couldve played weak 4's like that which now tripped or occasionally trapping down with a monster. thoughts on that range? thoughts on the insta bet? should we really just c/f turn c/f river?

Most villains bet flop if they have a pair. Your hand looks weak he's repping a ten only and he 1/2 pots so you dont need to be good often I snap call that river bet

I bet this flop and consider shoving if he raises w. what looks like FE

Re: Sunday Mil (530) hand: lost post flop bvb
 

Youve allowed him to play the hand with your cards almost exposed by the time it gets to the turn. That doesnt preclude a bluff on the river, but I think youre too weak to call off 15% more of your stack.

If youre going to raise pf you almost are forced to CB or you turn your pf well above average hand into a bluff. If the stacks are awkward then just complete pf, and consider coming over the top if he raises, especially if youve limp/folded previously.

i limp preflop. as played i call river.

Re: Sunday Mil (530) hand: lost post flop bvb
 

i limp PF, check fold flop...

Adanthar,


the more i explore this line the more i like it. Are you calling turn and/or river as played?
