Default Re: NL50:88.c/r semibluff on flop,turn gets checked.I push river scare

I think this is pretty ballsy, but the flop 3bet is where you either have to let it go, or shove (I'll get to the shove in a minute). His raise doesn't leave much behind and takes a lot of leverage away from a river push. His flop bet also commits him to the pot, and if he's competent, your line's not going to make sense.

If you had a set, I think you would've either got it in on the flop or on the blank turn card. If you had a flush or combo draw, you'd be getting it in on the flop, IMO.

I think if you're gonna move at this pot, it's got to be on the flop. The preflop raise followed by the 3bet after your checkraise is likely an overpair and I think that if a competent player is folding an overpair at all, the best chance is on the flop.

BTW, the limp preflop is fine, IMO. Especially if the table's been raising a lot. It'd suck to get 4 bet off of a perfectly playable hand. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
