Rivered Straight on Paired Board
Easy, just wondering as a rule how you play these when they come up. I always seem to get it wrong so thought I'd post one to see what people say. Obviously I'm not folding but is it an easy raise or easy call against your typical small stakes fish?
Effective stacks are about $110 so after his bet I'd have about $60. I have villain at 30/3/2.5 after about 90 hands, his turn aggression is 5 though and I have seen him slow play when he really shouldn't do. I have also seen him call raises from any position with any two suited. I'm playing pretty TAG about 19/12, don't think he's the type to pay attention though. Full Tilt Poker No Limit Holdem Ring game Blinds: $0.50/$1 6 players Converter Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is UTG with T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $4</font>, UTG+1 calls, 3 folds, BB calls. Flop: 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($12.5, 3 players) BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $9</font>, UTG+1 folds, BB calls. Turn: Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($30.5, 2 players) BB checks, Hero checks. River: 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($30.5, 2 players) <font color="#cc0000">BB bets $30.5</font>, Hero ? Ta for thoughts |

Re: Rivered Straight on Paired Board
I would call. Villain could easily have a Q or be bluffing often enough to call I think.
Also, what are some opinions on playing JTs UTG? I think I would normally fold preflop, but I would occasionaly play it from UTG. |

Re: Rivered Straight on Paired Board
Do you mean call instead of raising or instead of folding? Because as I said I wasn't thinking of folding but I was just wondering whether as a rule with only a 2/3 pot raise left to make it is a raise we should making most of the time when our draw is unobvious or raising straights on paired boards is nearly always -EV?
With regards to playing JTs UTG I'll sometimes raise it depending on the table, what i will not do is limp call with it because i don't want to be playing a hand that can be easily dominated OOP without the lead in the hand. |

Re: Rivered Straight on Paired Board
mustardo,
you backdoored the gutterball straight!!!! it is very unlikely he has a boat , although you mentioned he does slowplay. Also, there is no flush possibility. Get those chippies in there! |

Re: Rivered Straight on Paired Board
I agree with the sentiment to push.
There's pretty much no way he's putting you on a straight and once you check the turn he's guessing you don't have a queen so he's going to steal it with a busted flush draw. Or, he's got 66 or 88 but I think the busted draw is much more likely. |
