Re: River line - 2kPLO8
its def a check-call, barring a ninja (pt) read on the partic. opp. being unusually nut-peddley (peddly?)
what about the flop though? if we're going to just call, are we sure about re-potting turn for 60% of our stack? it's a semi-blank, but villain could have just doubled his outs...we pretty much force ourselves to call anything on the end, since we're 5 to 1 (I do believe that now that we got here we have to call)
we can see if we improve on turn without filling up while exercising good pot control to the end...I agree that the stacks aren't big enough to make another smooth-call great but:
a) at such an aggressive limit you disguise your hand well
this is why with so little invested on flop I think folding>calling>raising
b) what do we think about smooth-call flop and FOLD turn as we haven't picked up much more to be happy about AND if he can call a re-pot here we're at best a 70/30 fav with 60% of our stack invested=mediocre spot (again villain's range important)
