Default Re: 2 very thin value river raise possibilities

hand 1
bet the turn , you have an overpr , double gutter and position , i think your taking it down right there most of the time

as played , i wouldnt raise , i probably fold here

hand 2
really no value, and this is pretty close call/fold again ...so RR here is pretty bad

[/ QUOTE ]

meh, I think betting the turn in hand 1 is bad because it has great showdown value. There's only 1 card to come and if he has air, I'm not getting any monies from him by betting. Because I also have straight possibilities, why would I want to take it down right then and there?

Bet the turn for value. If you needed to make the straight to win the hand then checking would be fine. As it is, you want to get money in there while you are ahead, which you most likely are in that spot quite often. Also, no value in raising either of these rivers.
