Yeah, I think i should have, although at the time I somehow didnt notice the 4 was a club, duh! Yeah I think my biggest leak at the moment is not folding gtrong hands (sets, straights ect) on the river when loose passive villians have quite obv hit their draw and shoved.

I suppose it's part of the learning process. First when you start playing you learn to fold junk pf, middle pair, tpwk. Then you realise that sometimes tptk is no good so you learn to fold that. Then the same with overpairs like AA / KK. Now the villian stage for me is folding great hands that get rivered. I think its prob my biggest leak atm.

Not folding top set ever is probably the smallest leak you are ever going to have.

I would call. Obviously villain is pushing for value, but havenīt we all seen passive, fishy villain take this line with a set, 2pair, a good pair etc. Cc, cc, push any river. And you call and you are like wtf, was he bluffing? Why would he bluff with bottom two etc in this spot. We only have to be good 27% of the time. And if we call and lose villain still lost money playing it like that.

i don't call calling a turn bet to win half a pot bet on the river very good implied odds. even if he has a straight and a flush draw then he is still a 3 to 1 dog on the turn
