Re: (2/4) Stealing with JTs
[ QUOTE ]
1. People need to stop overusing the free card play, particularly in blind steal situations and in shorthanded games. It just doesn't work that often. When we get three-bet and bet into on the turn, we cost ourselves twice and much as we would have saved had our play worked.
2. I often like the delayed river raise with top pair in situations like this. Opponents:
a. Hate to fold anything to one more bet on the river if raised.
b. Don't like to three-bet anything but the nuts on the river.
c. Like to keep bluffing in heads-up situations.
All these things make me want to wait until the river with hands that are strong but which I don't want to get reraised with.

I wish I could just repost this as if it was my post, since this is really a great reply.
Thanks for the insight as usual W.
