Default Re: Played set poorly/weak on river?

[ QUOTE ]
If you know you're going to call the river when he bets, it's best to bet it first yourself. That way he'll fold if he doesn't have a flush and thinks you do. It just puts the ball in your court [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

That way you get absolutely no value as if he doesn't have a flush you have the best hand and it would be better to give him the opportunity to bluff

Better reasons might be that you could get him to fold a low flush or that you avoid the 'negative freeroll' should you have decided that you're going to pay him off if he bets
