$38 6-max HU
Villain in this hand is pretty solid thinking player. We've been going at it HU for a while. Both definitely making moves on each other.
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (2 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums) Hero (t4760) Button (t4240) Preflop: Hero is BB with 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Button calls t100, Hero checks. Flop: (t325) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets t400</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1200</font>, Button calls t800. Turn: (t2725) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets t1000</font>, Hero calls t1000. River: (t4725) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Hero ? How'd I play the hand and what to do now that I've gotten to river. |

Re: $38 6-max HU
I would have lead out on the turn. Bottom two is a trong hand HU, but still vulneable, and it may be possible that he has one heart and can catch a heart on the river, ot that he has a pair and that the can outdraw you if the board pairs etc. Get the money in/push him out of the pot when it's likely you're ahead

Re: $38 6-max HU
check-push turn.
you're pot committed anyway. all your money has gotta go in on river even if you call the turn(since you only have 2200 or so chips left in a pot of 5k + opponent's 2k) |

Re: $38 6-max HU
I don't think he's pot committed on the turn. He "could" lay it down and still have enough. I don't think he should, but he could.
I don't like check pushing the turn here. I like leading out with a feeler. If he's gonna bet 1000 into your check, you might as well bet that 1000, and use it to get some information. Fold to a raise, slow down to a call. |

Push the turn. The pot is large & your hand, although strong, is still vulnerable.

Re: $38 6-max HU
BTW, I hate checking the turn. There's too many draws out there against you. You are likely best & you shouldn't risk giving a free card.

Re: $38 6-max HU
I hated how I played this hand throughout. I should probably have made it a bit more to go on the flop. Possibly even lead out?
Played as is, I really hated my turn check. Now I have no idea if he hit hard or not. That A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] really made it hard. He eiher hit an Ace and thinks he's best or he hit the flush and I'm toast. I think I need to bet out turn. Maybe 1/2 pot. I doubt he pushes with air if I'm so pot-commited. The funny thing is that if he does push, I am pot-commited so I probably have to call with outs to a boat, knowing I'm behind. Ugh. What a mess. |

Re: $38 6-max HU
There's no need to raise more on the flop. You already made more than a pot sized raise. That's plenty. As I said, I push the turn. I think you should know why after reading my post & reading your last post.
