is this fine? Would you play it differently? Versus aggressive players, is river c/c? I'm still not too experienced w/nl yet

Good, now c/f river against this nitty villain.

You can check the turn to keep the pot small and get value on the river from some Ax hand.

As played yeah its a fold he is not that aggro (1.6)

I think it's played fine. He has AT almost always

FireStorm · #5 10-03-2007, 11:11 AM

C/C or C/F river depending on bet size. While checking the turn has some merit, I'm probably not doing it. Bet a bit more on the flop, $25-$28.

Actually re-read HH and c/f river is much better. You're betting to get value from AJ only. And villains like this will never bet river with a hand we beat

You definitely need to check at some point in this hand as your hand is not worth three streets of value vs this villain.
