make the flop bet closer to pot

turn fold looks ok. I see a lot of JT and J9 here.

Looks like you are toast on the turn...but you only have $14 more to put in so you are getting 6.6:1 odds. Your only choices are:
1. Puke then call
2. Call then puke

No. This is a fine bet, they're mostly gonna have pairs here. JT/J9? Are you really calling a reraise with these hands? If you are, please sit at my tables.

OP I play it the same, but call off the rest of your stack and whine about JJ.

how bad is checking the turn?

thac · #6 02-19-2007, 10:44 AM

Actually, I misread the HH.. it was the cold-caller that is still in the hand.. I really like checking this turn.. I may give up on the turn because it's really likely that it hit him (every midpair got there).

Sneds9 · #7 02-19-2007, 10:47 AM

I would call the turn bet and spike a 9 for a split.

DrRock · #8 02-19-2007, 10:57 AM

yeah, my nitstinct tells me to give up on this turn

CO has a smaller PP most of the time, unless you have a read he smoothcalls with QQ+/AK, he has implied odds given satck sizes

Nah I'm more WTight here than you [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I c/fold the turn, only hand on the flop that I legitimately beat is 99 drawing in CO's range. All other's are sets, only QQ and KK we beat.

Of course if villan got his stack and is a bad player I play it the same and reluctantly fold the turn with 40$ more behind likely going in on the river.

I used to v. rarely fold AA in a 3bet pot, now I will occasionally if I think I'm smoked & deep and here i think is one of those scenarios.

I think you played it fine, except I bet 10-12 on the flop, we want to discourage drawers.

I agree with munkey about potting the flop. Needs to be more. Im c/f this turn as well. If he bluffs me off the best hand occasionally, so be it.
