KK TopSet/TurnPossibleFlush/RiverBoat/Linecheck
I'm wondering who likes this line and who doesn't and if anyone feels strongly about it either way. Villian here seems fairly donkish - tends to misvalue hands. I've seen him turn hands into bluffs when he thinks he's valuebetting. But I havn't been at the table long so I'm not fully confident I know how he plays. On the turn here I don't think he has a flush obv. but it's possible - it's hard to put him on a K - he may have two-pair and he may be betting with second pair or whatever thinking it's good as he may think I'm FOS. On the river I fill up and think he will definitely bet a flush and possibly a lot of other things that he may possibly call with so I think it's more EV to go for the big score than donk into him. Comments welcome, thanks.

Re: KK TopSet/TurnPossibleFlush/RiverBoat/Linecheck
You played it pretty bad.
Bet 4 on the flop. Bet 6 on the turn. Bet about 19 on the river He should have a flush almost always here |

Re: KK TopSet/TurnPossibleFlush/RiverBoat/Linecheck
I bet 3 because that's my standard c-bet size and I don't see what huge difference betting 4 would make. Increasing the size of c-bets by silly amounts like 25% just because of board texture is over-rated and it makes basically no difference.
If you are sure he has a flush why bet the turn and get raised? If you are sure he has a flush why donk into him and not go for the crai? I don't think your post makes any sense at all. Please explain instead of just saying I played it badly. |

Bet the turn you got a monster hand!!! CRAI on river is ok if you think he'll bet. |

Re: KK TopSet/TurnPossibleFlush/RiverBoat/Linecheck
exactly.
So you flop a set on a HEAVY DRAWY board and you bet 3 into 4.75? Unless you think he's some super aggro guy you NEVER DO THAT. You are just giving him odds and you basically are begging for them to outdraw you. So, the reason why you bet the turn, but not as much is because you don't want to check and let him know that you are weak. If he raises you too much you can fold, no big deal. However you CAN check the turn, basically check call it. But you cannot check the river. You need to value bet it, especially because he has a flush 90% of the time |

Re: KK TopSet/TurnPossibleFlush/RiverBoat/Linecheck
You are still making no sense insyder. Maybe you're right about the c-bet size (I'm not convinced of this at btw and think it larely depends on how c-bets fit with how an individual plays - I think flop c-bet size is more or less psychological since often unless you severely overbet the pot you're giving odds to draw and often unless you severely underbet the pot you're giving horrible odds to draw on dry boards - it's decisions on later streets that count imho) but if we can agree to leave that for another thread that would be good.
You might be acidentally right about betting the turn but you're certainly not right for the reasons you said. I don't want to check and let him know I'm weak? I have top set? Bet-folding this turn with top set would be horrible imo. 'You can check the turn' - Yeah, I noticed. 'You cannot check the river'. Why not? I already said this guy is never checking behind with a flush. People who value-bet second pair don't check behind with flushes. And if he has a flush 90% of the time why bet when we can crai??? |
