I fold to the second barrel. Most villains will c-bet, but most will stop after the first try, too.

why not a raise somewhere (flop/turn) to see where you stand? My feeling here w/ the low pair and the constant bets it is like walking down a dark corridor.

c/r flop shut down if called?

I take this line against villians like the one in this hand.

you have invested more than what you would in a flop c/r with the line you took.
Of coarse if villian had air you got more value out of him with c/c line.

I just hate c/c three streets I rarely win monies with these lines. Seems like villian would have shut down some where if you were ahead here.

Assuming you make it to the river, you lost to pocket pairs, AK, KQ (discounted), and Kxd (again, discounted.) You beat AQ and busted draws. I think I find a fold, in that you have no real knowledge that the villian will three barrell bluff here. I don't think it is a really bad call, but I think I fold. I also think you might fold on the turn because I don't think you can count on a free showdown (AF = 3) and there are a lot of scary cards on the river.

I get sucked into pots like this all the time and never know what to do. Hence, I spew a fortune.

I never 3b pf. I just can't see that it's a more EV line than calling. (Metagame notwithstanding of course).

I play it the same except usually pussy out on river. I'm pretty sure it's awful though to call 2 streets and then fold river, so I'm really not sure.

I didnt feel the need to turn my hand into a bluff on the flop.

There isnt really much in my range that I would check/raise the flop with other than diamond draws, and there arent a great deal of those in my range.

Normally I would fold to 2nd barrel here.

Abramovic · #8 05-24-2007, 02:05 PM

What do you guys think about calling river after calling 2 streets? I had quite a big think at the time.

Its not a bluff if you actually have the best hand. Which is what you find out with a flop c/r

Fold to second barrel as played, although I might c/r the flop
