Is there something that you would recommend I read that would teach me this thing you call "hand reading"?

[/ QUOTE ]

No, actually.

Was there anything in my post that prompted such a sarcastic response?

[/ QUOTE ]

Nope, its my fault not yours.

Calling a raise pre, calling a c-bet and then betting after a double check doesn't scream, at least to a player of my limited ability, monster hand.

Well. That depends on the board. You are reading his line w/o even looking at the board and what hand he is "representing." If you want a lesson on hand reading, start by looking at his range after his flop call, and assess what % of that he bets the river with, and what% of that we beat.

IMO, I think TT and 99 could be played this way.

[/ QUOTE ]

What hand could TT posibly get value from? You realize betting this river w/ TT is a bluff, right?

[ QUOTE ]
Much less likely, but still possible, an underpair to the board.

[/ QUOTE ]

Something like 44 is a HELL of a lot more likely than TT, because 44 folds out a ton of better hands, whereas TT has more showdown value and folds out less hands which beat it.

The A makes a flush somewhat less likely, since it would mean that Villain called preflop and then on a paired board with a non-nut flush draw.

Why should he fold the flop w/ any flush draw? (he shouldn't)
