Default Re: I do this wrong?

i think this is probably a good fold, but i'd check the river and call a reasonable bet most of the time. you are going to be beat here a pretty good chunk of the time, but J10-K10 will be shown down occasionally, so i don't think calling a small river bet would be awful.

if you're going to bet the river, at least bet an amount that doesn't scream "i have a decent hand but i'm terrified of this board, please don't raise". i'll raise bets like that with total air pretty often, and i've said this in other threads, but there seriously is no bigger tell in the micros than bet sizes.

example:
i have any two cards, call a raise preflop IP or OOP. flop comes out, any three cards any suits. if IP I check and original raiser bets $2 into a pot of $3.60 or so. if OOP original raiser just makes that bet. i raise that to $6 nearly every time, honestly. for every time that they come over the top or flat call and i get pushed out later, i probably take the pot down in that situation 3 or 4 times. yes, that could be exploited by an opponent that realized this, but at this level most people are not going to and if they do realize it there isn't too much damage and you can reevaluate against them.
