interesting river spot vs roothlus in stars 50r
2nd hour. roothlus had been playin a lot of pots so far. i don't really put him on a 9 since he checked behind the turn but I can't imagine he would call a shove on the river with a q so i see no point in raising in case of the small chance he has a 9. thoughts?

Re: interesting river spot vs roothlus in stars 50r
You cant fold, obviously
I think you have to raise here.. If you are sure hes not calling a shove with a Q, make it like 9000 or something silly like that. I'd probably shove though... |

reraising is giving money away
call quickly, though. |

Why make a bet you "know" wont get called with a Q when it will most definitly get called with a 9, and your stack is gone. That play makes no sense, plus im sure roothlus is smart enough to know that a smallish raise on the river with a 9 is a better play than a large raise. after all its more important to extract a few chips than make the all in and get no call. |

Bet the flop, I really don't see him checking here if he has 89s or A9s that he cced with PF.

[/ QUOTE ] i should have mentione this in the OP, but earlier in the 2n hr i raised from ep and roothlus called and one other dude and i checked flop and ended up check/folding river to him. based on that i thought checking would be the best play. but maybe your right. |

shove...he could easily have AA/KK/case Q, and its less likely he'd check a 9 on the turn

your goal is to stack someone and it's going to be very hard to do that unless you bet the flop
