JJ on PP 1/2, tricky board?
No reads on Villain here, just sat down at the table.
1. What are ur thoughts about the turn bet? 2. What are ur thoughts about the river bet? The turn bet i still doubt about. My thought by the river bet was that he would not have an Q or A so he prob. has an FD or pair of fives?

I am bet-folding both the turn and river here. If that was your plan I like it alot. You'll get good value from a lower pocket pair this way, and the flush draw will fold most rivers, but probably wouldn't have bluffed it anyway.

Re: JJ on PP 1/2, tricky board?
I'd check/call the river. I want to see a showdown with this hand, but I don't want to have to call a 3-bet to do it. A lot of these guys will play and call down with any ace and the flush draw just came in, so it's very possible this card helped him.
Of course, I'm playing horribly at the moment, so take that into account when you consider my advice. |

Definitely bet the turn. People call with all sorts of crap on the flop. Don't give him credit for a hand until he makes you.
As for the river, yeah, this is a perfect spot to induce a bluff, or potentially to induce a "vaue bet" from a lower PP or something. |

Re: JJ on PP 1/2, tricky board?
I'm new to 6 max.
Turn bet is standard for me. River is tricky. I would probably have checked it and made a crying call or folded it, depending on any reads if CO bets. On a side note. Read an interresting article where it said "If on the river you have a hand that you would agonize over calling with if you check, you should usually bet." Dont know if this is good or bad advice yet [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. Seems this falls into that category. But don't se a worse hand calling your bet, except maybe pockets. |
