Default Re: 4/8 Full Kill Hand

Felicia,

It's difficult to analyze this completely due to the lack of any board cards. However, I'd say that if the board on the turn did not contain the A or K of hearts, I would have raised, since hands with either of those cards will pay two bets on the turn, but none on the river when no heart falls. In addition, if you're playing with typical loose-passive monkies, they will likely pay two on the turn if they have a made straight, or anything else that looks good to them, especially given the size of the pot.

In addition, being afraid of a higher two-card flush when you hold Qxs and you've faced just a single bet from a CA maniac is pretty weak-tight...you've been playing NL for too long. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]
