[/ QUOTE ] i can't help but think this question is coming from results-oriented thoughts. because this is NEVER a bluff or if it is it's in my opinion way less often then 17:1, i think the truly correct play would be able to bet/fold. helps to have a plan before clicking the bet button. btw, i'm sorry this happened to you. hahaha. |

Re: omg why why why
Well, I can't bet the river here if I plan to fold to a raise. The pot is just too big. As we go to the river, I am planning to see a showdown with trips and 15 bets in there. So it's either check call -- given that my board is scary and when raised I'm going to hate calling -- or bet for value, figuring two pair will make a crying call here lots. I personally like the bet, but can't find the fold.

Re: omg why why why
you really think the opposition is ever bluffing here?
i guess it's subjective. . .15.8:1 is roughly 6% and my opinion is that the opponent bluffs less often than this. as a caveat, tournaments are a little different: the difference between losing one bet and scooping a 17 bet pot is the what seperates winning and losing the whole thing so i guess you can call based on that. |

Re: omg why why why
Is your opponent capable of a river C/R bluff?
This hand reminds me of the Sklansky quote about not betting/raising if a raise/reraise would make you ill... |

[/ QUOTE ] The other side of the coin is that if he wasn't capable of this kind of bluff before, have you now made him (or other villains at the table) capable with your b/f line? Next time he has a worse 2pr on 6th st and misses his 4 outer you may find out. |

Re: omg why why why
You just have to bet. Too many 2 pair combinations will call.

[/ QUOTE ] Or you simply make this the last time at this table/tournament you fold to a river raise in a big pot with a decent hand. It just changes the likelyhood of a late street bluff for the immediate future, which is fine as long as you adjust for it. FWIW I think the OPs hand was played perfectly. Despite the fact that its hard to bet/muck 3 kings I don't even think its really that debatable considering the boards. |
