Flop Action

(no cap live)

I'd c/c turn and b/c river. As it worked out I reaaaally want to 3bet the river but I don't think I can find it in me, so I call.

[danzasmack]

i call. 3-bet is spew because im not folding to a 4-bet.

Villan showed down QQ for the set, played overagg, but he did have some outs...
I was thinking i should have bet turn and called through from there, but it looks like i played it fairly standard

[william288]

i will not check the turn. i will bet/call instead

[cdlarmore]

And if river comes spade i assume your check folding?

if i bet/call turn, i c/f river when spade falls

Turn check is brutal.

[cdlarmore]

and your not being results oriented?
What if we fire turn, get raised? We are forced to check river, and call a bet, or he has control to check behind, either way with that line, its the same showdown price...
I did give him a free card too though... If you bet turn and he flat calls then a spade drops on river, are you finding a fold?

my first instinct was that he 5bet the flop for a free card with the A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] or K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and tried to move you off your hand with a river raise when he didn't get there [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

in any event, i don't see anywhere you can play this differently. i don't want to donk the turn because if we get raised we have to call down and we will have poured alot of bets into this pot with a hand that isn't even the 12th nuts.

whatever hand he had he played it very akwardly/poorly and so all you can do is play your hand optimally street by street, and that is what you did.
