Re: ($1k NL) Interesting river decision with trips.
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] What makes you consider folding? [/ QUOTE ] Just because to make this river pot bet he SHOULD have a really strong hand, like at least trips or better. TP tripped up on the rvr, there is a flush possible, there is an A out there, etc. OTOH it could be a bluff. It really shouldn't be a hand like aces up, but you never know if people are playing 'correctly'....so I had to consider raising too esp after he showed a tendency to call raises with TPNK. [/ QUOTE ] I see, a lot of times though a villain may see this as more of a reason to bet since you are less likely now to have TP. Of course a bluff is in there, as is a flush. However, I think villains bluffing frequency increases a huge amount when you check the turn. I assume you checked the turn with the intention of calling most reasonable river bets on non-flush card rivers?

Edit: Although if the river completed the flush I prob would have called a small bet with my J high flush. Another thing to consider is what we would do if the river came the same card but he only bet half pot? I think a small raise (like a minraise) might be more viable there because we could still fold to a poosh?

Would a half pot turn bet maybe have clarified things a bit? [/ QUOTE ] I don't really like betting the turn in this hand, esp since it is an A. There is a decent chance the A helped him and by checking I think I get more value on the river - either by inducing bluffs or getting villain to call lighter. Some river cards screw me but it is worth the risk imo.

[/ QUOTE ] I guess the real question is what would this guy call a flop bet with that would call a raise on the river that you are ahead of? Another J is a possibility but you already have 3 of them accounted for. He may call with an A here. That certainly is a possibility. I don't see many other hands. I do think we are good 33% of the time. I don't think we are good often enough when we get called. I am not sure what I think about min-raising a smaller bet.
