Turned Set vs. "enemy"

I got the feelig he tries to outplay me.
Is the bet on the river too much? I think it's not b/c two pair will call here as well as some TP hands.

I'd call this preflop against an unknown utg raiser.

stack a donk on the turn might have been a better choice especially if he's the way you describe him

I bet $3 on river... rest is standard

I thought about calling, but since the bigstack is in, i think i could get much more money if i flop right.

How should i have stacked him on the turn?

stack a donk: just push hope he calls with AK/AQ? You need to get away with that pretty often before you make up for the missed value on the later streets if he folds.

stack a donk.. bet flop.. check raise turn.

Scrubbo · #9 07-24-2007, 08:21 AM

i'm surprised that you guys don't know what stack-a-donk is.
it's raise pf, cbet flop, and crai turn

well since you will only hit a set in like ~10% of the flops you will be completely lost in the rest with your btm pair (or you will get lucky and hit your 2-outer [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] )
and you can still start to build a huge pot when you hit your set and fold otherwise
