Yeah I should have bet more on flop, but I have been making a lot of 3/4 cbets and was hoping to get played back at. [/ QUOTE ] Meh, $44 is fine here. If you're gonna bet turn, get raised and plan on calling any blank river, shouldn't you just push turn? |

[/ QUOTE ] I imagine he probably hadn't deciced whether or not to call if the river was a blank yet. These guys aren't folding either if the river pairs the board so i don't mind just calling the turn. I think this is a flush though about 95% of the time and would like to think i would lay down on this river but with 4:1 the call is meh. |

[/ QUOTE ] Why is that certainly the best line? Have you really considered the numbers behind re-raising all-in on the turn or are you basing this on the statement in this thread that says 95% of the time the guy has the flush? If you take the time to map it out, I think you need to strongly consider re-raising all in on the turn. Here are some of the calculations I came up with based on what I read as the likely hands you are up against. You can changes these percentages and recompute but you will still probably find that re-raising all-in on the turn make more money. At the least, I think you'll find that you should consider the all-in play on the turn. % of Time Opponent Holds ||| % You Win (after turn card) ----------------------------------------------------------- 5% AA (w/ Ad) ||| 78% (He draws a diamond) 5% AK/KQ/KJ ||| 77% 0% QQ-TT ||| Doesn't Matter 40% Flush ||| 23% (You make a house) 40% Trips ||| 97% 5% Two Pair (54 w/ 4d) ||| 77% (He draws a diamond) 5% Bluff ||| 90% Scenario 1: ------------------ You bet on the turn and raise all-in after the opponent's min raise. If he holds || Assume he || You net -------------------------------------- AA || Calls || +$520 * 78% of the time AA || Calls || -$520 * 22% of the time AK || Calls || +$520 * 77% of the time AK || Calls || -$520 * 23% of the time Flush || Calls || -$520 * 77% of the time Flush || Calls || +$520 * 23% of the time Two Pair || Folds || +$366 * 100% of the time Bluff || Folds || +$366 * 100% of the time Total EV ~ +1000 Scenario 2: ------------------ You check the turn and call a pot sized river bet only if another diamond does not appear and you don't get a house. 8 diamonds left in the deck that don't pair the board 10 cards give you a house or better 28 cards are blanks ~ 17% time diamond arrives (which kills you if he holds a single diamond like 4d4c or Ad, etc. and more importantly, kills the action) ~ 22% time you get a house or better (he may not pay you off) ~ 61% time nothing changes (you beat trips but loose to flush and possibly gain a bluff) My Opinion --------- I just can't see why checking behind on the turn is the best play. I cannot see how it can make you more over the long run, but maybe my math is screwy somewhere. Please run the numbers for scenario two and tell me what you come up with? I say it is about 1/2 as good of a play... especially when you consider other factors like table image and having a large stack. Also doesn't anyone else see how you loose more money the times you opponent has a lower set and you don't get paid off vs the money you loose when he got lucky and hit some bogus flush. Playing shorthanded can you really afford to be that big of a pushover? |

i do not like checking behind on the turn. you guys are being so results oriented, seeing as grim got check-raised. grim is LAG and people will pay him off with one pair hands here. you lose SO MUCH value against other hands, like top pair with/without a diamond. checking behind is such a weak play, you have a set and just because the flush draw hit does not mean that you are ALWAYS up against a flush. what about lower sets? two pair? you lose so much value by checking behind.
