Re: More controversy -- river bet-call with 3PBK
I think calling the river raise is probably a bigger mistake than betting the river. I always call down in this kind of spot, hoping to catch some resteal, and always wind up being shown a better hand.

This was one situation where, for whatever reason, I thought he'd have a monster here sometimes (often KK or AA) or a bluff. Nothing really in-between. Getting 7.75:1 I thought it was close enough to call given that I didn't trust him, and was shown T9o for the missed OESD, but I still think the river play is a pretty close decision overall. Rob |

Re: More controversy -- river bet-call with 3PBK
I'd probably bet-fold.
re: the call -- I get what you're saying, but my experience is that opponents just don't bother to do a lot of re-stealing in small, momentumless pots. They probably should, but they don't. |

Re: More controversy -- river bet-call with 3PBK
I bet the flop, river and usually the turn too, but think checking is interesting and might be better.

Re: More controversy -- river bet-call with 3PBK
I dont have to take it down right there more than 20% or so, you dont think that will happen ?
Edit: err, I know that this alone doesnīt make it better than checking as you arenīt losing the hands just because you check, but Iīm going to give up alot if someone bets and it will happen pretty often too, so I think itīs better to lead myself. |

[/ QUOTE ] if you think it's a worthwhile bet b/c you take it down 20% of the time that's fine, but we've turned our pair of 8s into a bluff, which doesn't seem terribly practical since nearly every better hand will call and very few worse ones will.
