Default Re: 77 river decision (NL100)

The 2 hands are totally different. In the other hand you have position, top pair and pickup a nice draw on the turn. You have the advantage of seeing how each street plays before deciding what to do.

In this hand you have a weak made hand out of position. You have to bet blindly into another player on a board that's really not that great for your hand and gives you little chance to improve, if your outs are even good.

The 2 hands should not be played the same. Try not to take advice too stringently. You have to apply concepts differently based on a variety of situations in poker, that's why people often say it's such a situational game.
