Not entirely. You must at least think I can have a ten, which must be why you did not fire the river.

I didn't think you had a T, I just pussied out on the river. I should've pushed, my read was to push, but I played it like a biatch.

you fold to a river push, right?

[/ QUOTE ] I checked the river with no idea what to do if you bet. That was a big part of why I posted this hand. You're right that I would probably fold, though. After agonizing for 20 seconds or so. I was very surprised you didn't bet the river when I saw your hand.

We have talked too much now, so I might as well tell people the results. I called and checked the offsuit A on the river with about a pot sized bet left in stacks. He checked behind with 9s8s.

This is why playing this tricky on the flop by not c-betting, undervaluing your hand can make it very difficult on later streets....I would bet this flop 99% of the time.

Would you normally bet this flop? And if so why didn't you bet it here??

[/ QUOTE ] Yes, I would bet this flop some % of the time that is higher than 50. I felt like checking this time.

Baluga, if he bet out here would you make a semibluff or call/float/draw?

checking the flop = el terrible. You make your hand impossible to play, as evidenced by the turn.

checking the flop is not terrible by any means, results oriented thinking is not something to get into.
