Default Re: 4/8 live, JTo in the BB flops a gutty

Really it doesn't make much of a difference. If you were unlikely to capture a bet on the river it's a fold, but I suspect you get 2 here a good portion of the time and it will break to the positive side for you.

If you are trying to loosen your image some , I would definetly call. When you show down a gutshot win on the river most payers will mark you as week at this level.

Note also that you have to consider the guy leading the action. If he or she is the type to go limp on the river with many hands your money making potential goes down. Likewise if the callers aren't the type to overcall, you can ratchet it down.

Now that I said all of that, someone is going to say that i think it's proper to go to the river on almost any hand in low limit hold'em. Well if the pot is large, yes it likely is.
