Yeah I don't know why either.

Seems standard to me.

Check behind. Fold turn or check again. Don't even cont bet.

No c-bet here fo real? That's probably how I play something with a little more showdown value here, like QQ/JJ, but I think I'm c-betting 88.

So I take it all you check-behinders would be doing the same thing here with, say, A9s?

[/ QUOTE ]No, I'd bet that. This flop has too many hands that are calling/raising the cbet. Make the ten a six and keep it a heart and I don't mind cbetting as much. Two overs, flush draw, straight draws... meh. Save it.

My reasoning is because this is such a drawy board and so many hands are going to be calling here, the only thing you fold out is A-rag and low pp IMO.

badkins6 · #9 06-06-2007, 12:30 AM

Oh, and that's A-rag with no hearts.

I figure you know I meant A9s not hearts.

If there are too many hands calling/raising a cbet here, then why would we cbet A9 and not 88? If you're thinking it's just too likely villain connected with this board, then fine, but then it makes no sense to bet A9 either.
