Value bet t150. UTG/MP2 will think you're stealing and hopefully will call to play the board.

Re: odd hand in 20/180 stars tourney
I don't mind checking the flop hoping that someone else will bet. You have to give them a chance to catch up. But I think on the turn, with you being OOP, you have to bet and hope someone else has a low pocket pair or a 9 and will call your bet.
The reality is that you aren't going to get much money on this board unless someone has an overpair to the board or is willing to call down the river playing the board, which is fairly unlikely in a 4-way pot. It's tough to get paid when nobody else can have a hand that beats the board and you know it. the case 9 doesn't even play. I honestly might even consider pushing the turn because it looks like such a bluff and nobody would actually believe you'd have the hand you have. I think on the turn, you're trying to figure out how to get a naked ace to call. As it played out, I'd probably overbet the river or donkbet (minbet or close to it) the river to try and get someone else to call off my "bluff" or try to bluff me out of the pot. |

Re: odd hand in 20/180 stars tourney
I would bet atleast pot on the river. It looks like you are bluffin and someone will call to play the board. The only way anyone beats the board is with a J or TT-AA. You checked in the BB, so it is unlikely you have TT-AA.

I might even push the river. Some donk will call playing the board. The advantage of betting 200-300 is you might get 2 or even 3 calls.

[/ QUOTE ] Push, no call = T2,200 Push, 1 call = T4,000 Donkbet T200 & avg. 1.5 calls (1 or 2) = T2,600 In my opinion, pushing is clearly the best option if you get a call just over 20% of the time. In the 180 donk-fests, this is certainly possible. Also, you *might* get more than 1 caller, but that's pretty remote. FWIW, I probably min-bet the turn looking for a curious caller or 2, but I'm pushing the river here as played. |
