Hero: ...

1.) c/f river vs unknown? yes
2.) and bet more on turn right? yes
3.) Do you like a flop cr more then a bet/3bet? yes
4.) Do you prefer leading the turn as played? yes

[MatthewRyan]

yes
yes
no
not sure, probably bet pot

[MyPetTurtle]

The turn is pretty interesting. I think I prefer a check-shove. Villain's most likely hands - KQ, AK, QT, QJ, AA - will usually bet this turn and then have a trouble finding a fold.

[captainwacky]

i answered yes to all of them, but maaaaybe no to 1, because I love to call.

[jfish]

1.) yes
2.) yea sure.
3.) yes, this is not the best flop to lead because its hard to raise with overs.
4.) i think a c/r here is better. if he checks behind vbet most rivers.

i like this line.

also, i like flop c/r, i like c/f river.

[RiverHebrew2]

C/f river just because the board shitted out, but I think you played it nearly perfect up until then, and your bet sizing was good.

[ProfessorJC]

I'm sure you in principle agree that you should sometimes semibluff raise the turn, all in. IF he calls you with KQ then that's good in the long run, cos this is not your typical hand for this action - you'll frequently have him crushed. If you get a free card on the turn that's OK too.

These types of hands are good cover for your genuine hands.

[pokeriseasy]

I would probably rasie a little more on the flop, I usually make it 72-76, but making it 65 is no big deal. Turn bet is good. I have played against this guy a decent amount, I'm pretty sure my not on him is "will call 2 bets with a gutshot." So I think it's possible he can even have a hand like AQ, KQ is possible he can also have better two pair hands which he isn't folding to a bet. So C/F the river.

Also if you bet the flop against this guy and he raises you he probably has you crushed and there is nothing you can do to get him off his hand.

i'd like the turn checkraise a lot more if you had called the flop. i think qt, qj check this behind most of the time on the turn because after they get checkraised on the flop, people tend to be more cautious on the turn in position.

if an unknown does bet the turn, i think you're getting looked up pretty much every time you crai.
