Default Re: My river play bothers me

* G *

I suck at river too but here goes:

The flop is interesting. We could have a wa/wb situation with the rock-MP2 given his very tight preflop range. The board isn't particularly drawy but BB still could have a SD or small pair that we need extract value from or protect against.

Donking might allow MP2 to isolate us from the LPP-villain with a hand that dominates us or easily fold a hand that he'd c-bet with but not call a donk (maybe as wide as KK-88).

If MP2 3-bets our c/r we must be really worried of being dominated and might even fold at some point so c/r might give us more information than him raising our donk.

I think c/r flop is best.


Turn is standard.


River is a b/f (following the Clarkmeister Theorem?). A villain as passive as he seems will not raise this river with anything that you beat. You still have to extract the value from worse Aces.
