Re: Always Bet The River :(
The guy called your massive raise on the turn, is he really going to fold the river when he hits the flush he is obviously chasing? He is a terrible player, make a note and stack him later. I think the check is fine.

Re: Always Bet The River :(
If by "always" you mean "never" then yes.

Re: Always Bet The River :(
I don't even see how you are being results oriented to advocate betting here. If you had bet you would have lost $15 (I think that's what you have behind) more and that's it.
To be truly results oriented would be to say you played this perfectly (and I think you even may have). |

Re: Always Bet The River :(
I was thinking about the math. If I fold the 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] or 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] a little better than 1/6 times, I break even. Counting the times I get called by a worse hand because I'm only betting $15 into $72, why is it such a bad idea to bet here, given my stack size and the size of the pot?
