Default Re: river crai

Could you imagine if you checked this river and the button (the only person left in this hand to make the bet for you)checked behind you? Then you gain zip, zilch, nada for this lovely, lovely hand. And I've seen it, even from the aggressive types, and that would be utterly gross if that occured.

No, there's no question about it that you stand to gain so much more by betting (for one, you guarantee that $ goes into the pot) and you still may even get raised AND overcalled, especially with that board (that has a MYRAID of possibilities).

Consider who you're up against, too--- You've got one that was a calling station (who probably has a harder time knowing where he's at), and, you had the aggressive button. Not to mention, that, both players took the initiative in this hand at different streets, so it's very likely that the board hit all of you.
