2nd Barrels
Party Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.10/$0.25 Blinds - 5 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)
SB: $25.00 Hero (BB): $37.03 UTG: $41.60 CO: $31.85 BTN: $24.20 Reads: <font color="blue">This is obviously just a dumb little hand but it brings up a situation that always perplexes me, firing 2nd barrels. I've got to think firing off a lot of cbets and shutting down when called is -EV. Do I need a weak-tight read before I bother? If someone only folds the flop 50% should it be my standard play? What do fold percentages really mean? 80%+ sticking around with TP or better? 70% sticking around with 2nd/3rd pair, good draws? <50% sticking around with god knows what? Anyways, no reads here villain just sat down. As played I think I should have just folded the turn, but I'm wondering if a 2nd barrel would be appropriate. I mean the villains range is huge, and he has yet to show strength with his limp/call/call line.</font> Preflop: Hero is dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (5 Players) 2 folds, BTN calls $0.25, SB folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $1.50</font>, BTN calls $1.25 Flop: ($3.10) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players) <font color="red">Hero bets $2.00</font>, BTN calls $2.00 Turn: ($7.10) 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players) Hero checks, <font color="red">BTN bets $2.00</font>, Hero calls $2.00 River: ($11.10) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players) Hero checks, <font color="red">BTN bets $4.00</font>, Hero folds Pot Size: $15.10 |

Re: 2nd Barrels
Why did you call the turn? I think it's very marginal.

Re: 2nd Barrels
I know my play was stupid here. I think a lead, c/r, fold are all better than my call here.
I'm looking for 2nd barrel advice in general. |

Re: 2nd Barrels
Your hand is a very bad spot for a second barrel.
Just fold. Click here for some discussion on 2nd barrels. |

Re: 2nd Barrels
It depends on a couple of things, reads and board texture. Generally I don't do it very often at this level as players dont tend to float, therefore if they call flop, its likely they'll stay around til river fairly often as they have some piece of the board. In the hand above, the board texture wasn't great to c-bet on (no face cards) and once villian calls there, I definitely give up on that turn.

Re: 2nd Barrels
WHY DID U CALL THE TURN?!?! FISH
i fire 2nd barrel if the board is fairly dry as in cards not likely for my opponent to have and they arent on flush draw.. |
