Damned if I do, damned if I don\'t?
 

The game with playing its normal aggro self with a lot of weakish raises postflop in multi way pots to drive people out. It's likely we all view each other as solid.

wow... valesco? wow..

anyway, sacker caps preflop then caps the flop, and there's no flush draw. i'm gonna put him on a huge hand here. why would he put the last bet in on the flop and then check? he has 99 AA or KK

just check and gin it

So you think he never has 88, 77, JJ, TT here? AA and 99 are real posibilities but I'm not so sure about KK.

Re: Damned if I do, damned if I don\'t?
 

bet/folding seems like the best line here for sure -- very difficult to actually do at the table though.

well i heard sacker plays good, and given the action preflop and on the flop so far, i don't think 4 jacking it with 88 77 JJ TT is a good play.. and if he was going to put the 4th bet in with a hand like JJ TT why is he checking the turn? that makes pretty much no sense at all.

Re: Damned if I do, damned if I don\'t?
 

If the turn were a K you could bet. As it is, clear check.

Re: Damned if I do, damned if I don\'t?
 

I like Dean's line but don't think I could do it as he stated. Checking seems like the play, but then I don't know what to do on the river when sacker bets and stickman calls, which is happening a lot.

Re: Damned if I do, damned if I don\'t?
 

Checking here feels so grimey...but I think it needs to be done. I then obviously snap call any river bet. I like the line of b/f here...but I know I could never do it.
