10/20 - QQ in a blind battle.

Equal · #1 12-12-2006, 01:26 AM

Just sat down, no reads on villain. The previous hand was my first at the table... I defended my BB, raised the flop bet then folded to a turn donk-bet from a different villain.

I think your hand is seriously underrepped.
Call.

I would bet/fold the turn most of the time here against an unknown. Check/call turn for pot control is probably goot too, but no way would I ever fold on that river after c/c-ing turn.

If anything, if I lead turn and get called, I can find a river fold much easier if he jams, but when you c/c turn I think c/c blank river is mandatory.

wtf? insta-call.

I think a check-call is better than a c/r all in, though. "never getting called by hands you beat" has become sort of a cliche at this point, but this is one of those cases imo. Check-call turn/river seems like the best line here.

Your poker logic is flawed.

You called the turn bet, and then the most harmless card in the deck comes on river and u r considering folding?

Either fold turn which is ridiculous or insta call river.

i would c/r ai on turn quite often. if not, i'd push the river more often than not.

no no no no no no no no no no no no no hotmark. YOUR poker logic is flawed. I can't believe some high stakes players still don't understand something this simple. Just because the BOARD doesn't change doesn't mean your CHANCES OF WINNING VS YOUR OPPONENTS RANGE doesn't change on a blank river that your opponent has BET.

That said this is an obvious call, someone lock the thread.
