flop set , scary turn, bluff on river

[runhot]

my small flop bet was purposely small to induce a raise..
i think i should start to bet turns like these..
and then the bluff on the river, i figure i can get middle hearts out and a straight out.. i duno... i guess this whole hand is horribly atrocious

you can't afford to bet this little in a 4way pot. i don't think this small flop bet induces extra raises from villains: if utg has AhKh he will raise anyway. if a villain is drawing he will just take the cheap card.

i personally prefer calling pf w/ small pp's and throwing in a raise to mix it up.

flop - definitely bet more
turn - i'm going to continue to bet maybe like $8.
As played on river, I think it's a good play based on villain's weak turn bet.

I think u must reraise the turn. U recieve nothing information about you opponent cards, with that call. Reraise 9-12$ and he will not call with hand like Ah-x, Kh-x. He could see the river card for 3$!

this river is weak-sauce, this half pot bet is getting calls out of soooooo many hearts, and it looks like he was maybe blocking with the A of hearts on the turn and then you get raised out of your seat. I would bet the turn OOP and check call the river.

villain is in position - this is not a blocking bet

Turn bet is sometimes a suck bet with the nuts, i.e. AK hearts.

$10 river bluff is complete spew against a short stack. He's not folding ANY heart often enough to make it worthwhile.
