if he bet this turn, it's to bet/call with whatever hand he bet with or bet/fold with air.

if this is true, would this be a good spot to minraise vs an unknown without history?

so much depends on how tricky this player is, how aggro he is in blind battles... if you reason the frequency he's bluffing/has a weak hand is significantly greater than the frequency this line is a big hand, then a c/r would be a great play. i'd normally 3-bet the flop if I suspect he might be on air, though.

(in whispered tone): a straight.

oh, its possible, i just think most 5 10 players are betting w the intention of calling a CR with any of those hands. or else they chk behind.

Haha, my response was directed at the lapoker/krantz-dispute, oh well.

blind battles online are pissing contests. And with these stacks I can't see someone tossing T9 in a blind battle here. So no good if you plan on getting someone to fold 2 pair, much less a set.

ANY 8! (as well as a set) but mainly ANY 8!

That doesn't seem like a very convincing line with an 8 to me.

[durrrr]

if its not a really easy call/fold w/ a set here, then a turn bet by villain is awful.

def agree with this. he needs to have a plan if he's betting that turn without an 8.

either way, i like this play a lot.
