Should we have a monthly LC thread?

[Nate.]

OK, so I show up in San Jose. Never been in the city before. Naturally I hit up Bay 101. Jump in a 8-16 game, post my BB, call a raise in a 6-way pot, fold the turn. I haven't been in the casino 15 minutes when this hand comes up:

I open-raise the cutoff with J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], only the BB calls. I've seen him play a couple pots and he seems to fit a few stereotypes.

Flop K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. He checks, I bet, he calls.

Turn Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. He checks, I bet, he calls.

River K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. He bets, I call. MHIG. (T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] no good.)

Off with a bang!

Raise the river while saying "I raise for value!" and then show your cards when he mucks.

PJ --

Good idea. I could thus also avoid showing the garbage I raised with preflop.

PJ,

Even though your April fools thread ended up being enough low content for the month, will you please start a new one? It'll be better to have the thread be started by a green name.
