Default Re: Basic River Value Question

This is extremly close because we dont know how showdowny he is or how often he value bets his pairs...

Because its extremly close I think this is a bet for metagame reasons.

You will so frequently be taking the bet, bet, check line with UI ace high, that looking for spots where it looks to the fish "you're bluffing" ace high must be a good thing.

Hes more likely to call you really light in the future, as well as play passivly with his pairs if he suspects youll bet your ace high anyway.

Bad players would be less likely for recognizing the situation for what it is.

Im speculating from a game theory standpoint this is very very likely a bet... so when in doubt, do whats right against the average opponent.

But really, everything above is BS... do it cause its fun betting A hi for value [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] GAMB00l!!
