Am I afraid playing Aces?
Villain was not really active. Played a solid game.
I didnt bet the pot on the flop because i figured i was ahead. Although my usual line is to PSB. I PSB the turn because of the BDFD. What do you think about the check behind? I was not sure what to do.

If you normally bet pot, why in the world would you bet less when you think you are ahead? To minimize your winnings? |
Re: Am I afraid playing Aces?
No, i said it because i thought it was a mistake not to PSB the flop. And actually wanted to know if it was a terrible mistake.

Re: Am I afraid playing Aces?
Bet the river for value.
You have shown strength through the whole hand and he checks the river to you. He'll probably pay you off with a J, QQ and KK. Unless you have seen him check and call monster hands on the flop and turn and then check raise the river (i.e. he's tricky) I would say it's an easy value bet. |
Re: Am I afraid playing Aces?
Raise to about a $1 PF.
Maybe like $1.25 on flop. Turn is an overbet, but he called it ,so easy river shove. |
Re: Am I afraid playing Aces?
Definitely bet the flop.
As played I put villian all in on the river. The way you have played this you are probably get called by all pairs. |
Re: Am I afraid playing Aces?
Yes. You are afraid. valuetown the river.

Re: Am I afraid playing Aces?
I value the river. Villian has $8.60 left and the pot is at $10.67. I prob bet $5.00 hoping for a call. Depends on how weaktight the villian is. Some players wont sack off if you put them 'all in', yet will call damn near their whole stack on a value.
Edit: You definately need to bet or push the river though. |
Re: Am I afraid playing Aces?
shove river 100% of the time
