nl200 what do u think about this

[kaah]

so far he has been playing 20/15, havent seen anything from him. seem nittish

I block the turn becaus I cant afford to call the bet he will make, and when he calls im bluffing on the river.

I have found myself playing more and more hands like this latley.

this is fine imo once in a while...what's your plan for A (non heart) on river? what about a heart?

[Pieter86]

I don't really it, the float looks ok if you are capable of doing this with a monster, the turnbet is kinda small though and when it gets called i don't think you have THAT much FE on the river

[kaah]

drewvy I would bet any heart because I play backdoor draws the exact same way.
I expect him to check river after just calling turn, so I would check a none-scarecard.

Pieter86, ok and thanks for ur input!

I think betting more on turn would be better, but i would rather do this with a hand that has less showdown value.

Don't post results.

i really hate the way you played this hand. i do like the bet on the turn though. pretty sneaky/confusing. however i dont think i would bet the river. after he calls your block on the turn, he has a pretty wide range, but he's not folding the river if you are beat. as played i would check/call the river but check/folding wouldn't be awful IMO.

the jack is NOT a scare card. the K of hearts is a scare card.

[n1nj4.br]

c/c river is very bad imo.

There are 2 ways you could have played this hand better.
1) 3betting pf... lead flop.
2) Check raise flop. If called c/f turn

Your turn bet was so weak and to bet a paired board river after villain has shown aggression and called the turn bet against most opponents will be spewage.
