Villain is 'HarryPoker7', 20/17/3.4/500, 4% 3-bet, and plays at least 3 tables.

He tanks a while before checking the river.


I was ambivalent about the turn. If I bet I'm folding out a lot of hands (I assume), and I also risk getting blown off my nice draw.

Great job getting value. Seriously, bet the turn or river.

Re: FT400 toptop+fd against a reg
 

lolol you sure tricked him with those checks

Re: FT400 toptop+fd against a reg
 

I probably bet the turn, but if not I definitely bet the river. Checking both streets boggles my mind

this hurts my head

Re: FT400 toptop+fd against a reg
 

When are you going to show us how awsome your check was since he was planning a c/r with 99 and you just knew this because he tanked before checking the river?

Re: FT400 toptop+fd against a reg
 

Bet the turn, bet the turn. You're betting it so often as a bluff in somewhat similar spots. Represent representing the ace. And value bet the river! Fear of a check raise isn't a reason to avoid getting any value at all with a monster. Value bet him until he gives you a reason not to.

Re: FT400 toptop+fd against a reg
 

sorry dude, but you missed a ton of value here. I bet every street.

You need to betting that turn when you don't have the ace so it's such a sweet spot when you actually do have it.

Re: FT400 toptop+fd against a reg
 

Both bet turn, check river and check turn, bet river are superior lines. I'd mix it up against a regular depending on recent history. Checking down TPTK on that board is not good.

seems like a super-standard b/f

i would say he c/r this river a decent amount, although your hand looks like 99 as much as AKss

i also bet the turn though
