Default Re: 25-50 hand vs Diablo

I don't often bump old threads, but I am at my uncles house and in between my day and nightly activities in the holy land I get rather bored. I was looking through old threads after reading the Limon thread and wanted to see a clear example of a way that the game has changed, although maybe not "evolved" recently.

These days, when a good HSNL regular bets that turn (specifically, when he POTS the turn), he is generally not doing so without a plan of action for what to do if the villain repot shoves. I think if this hand were posted now, most people would be saying a few things.

1) Don't pot the turn unless you are snap calling a shove.

2) Don't pot the turn at all, betting 900 is superior.

I think 2 is very much a product of the fact that ppl don't really play on ub anymore though.

Also, I think the stackadonk line has been used so often, perhaps overused, that diablo (or whoever else if they were in his spot) would be more likely these days to bet the turn again.
