Re: Line check w/ TPTK
 

I think I'd probably check/call river, I don't really like taking three streets of value with TPTK on a fairly dodgy board. I can also see check/call turn check/fold river, though it's probably a bit too passive/dangerous vs. naked spades like Ks Jx

Re: Line check w/ TPTK
 

I check/call river. As played I fold river.

Re: Line check w/ TPTK
 

I'd bet more on the turn and river, but the fold is good.
I think check calling the river is bad because he's checking behind all Js, and there's just not that many bluffs that he can have to snap off.

Re: Line check w/ TPTK
 

Seems fine. C/f is better than c/c if you want to check this river. Villain isn't playing pot control on two streets with kj and then betting the river. Only realistic bluff you can snap off is qt or A9/A7 with a spade.

I agree, if I'm checking its because I'm folding to any signifcant bet.

Re: Line check w/ TPTK
 

definite fold the way you played it but just prefer check/call river

Re: Line check w/ TPTK
 

I c/c river but I suck.

Re: Line check w/ TPTK
 

yup, c/f is better than c/c too imo

Re: Line check w/ TPTK
 

I c/f the river. He will rarely turn Jx into a bluff and he should never show up here with hands that don't have any showdownvalue (QT no spades dumps turn alot).
