Re: thin
I'd check behind here. You have showdown value.
What's he going to call a river bet with? He's not going to fold a better hand or he'd have likely done that on the turn. Maybe, maybe an xTd, but even then he'd probably call given his profile. Q-high, or something like mid pair(above the bottom 2 pair on this board), I might try a steal or VB on the end. b |

eric - in a 10/20 online game i'd bet this a lot, as you say, expecting to get called by worse hands a fair bit. in my live experience incl. 10/20, ace high doesn't call here ever, but something like 88 does. obviously the games are lightyears apart, however. [/ QUOTE ] 10-20 online people go into callingstation mode with an A here because they're so afraid of being bluffed out. I'd be much more inclined to bet this online. Live they aren't calling this with A high unless they are a major calling station. b |

[ QUOTE ] seems standard to me [/ QUOTE ] the house is divided 50/50 it appears. must not be standard I think a lot depends on what you're goals are (like James. pointed out). if you want to project a v-betting machine, loose image, then its a bet. lately i've been projecting a Bernie-esque, tight so i can steal pots on occasion type-image, so i think this should have been a check here. [/ QUOTE ] i think this is about right. i typically produce a fast-playing, laggro image and i would have likely valuebet assuming(which is usually the case with me) that i would be called by any ace. this is the trade off in table image, though. i give up stealing a couple small pots here and there so that i gain more value from my made hands. if your image is as you said and you want to maintain it, checking is correct. |
