Default Re: Top set - when to stop raising?

I think anyone who says bet call or bet 3bet the river plays bad. Donking out here vs the turn capper is not standard at all.

If you capped the turn bet call, if he capped the turn Id go ahead and cr call the river. If u cr and get 3bet I dont think your up against a lower set enough (combo wise even discounted based on the cold call) to cap for value

Also for anyone who does say 3bet the river does ur answer change if the board was AJx AQx AKx with a T turn. I think 3betting there is -EV for sure.

and to chesspain you have to be ahead more than 50% of the time to 3bet the river, either way Id never take this line vs the turn capper donking out. I think its pretty poor and fwiw I dont think two pair raises ur donk very often (or even 77 99) so 3betting again is getting iffy and either way cr is a better line vs his range no matter what u do vs a 3bet (besides folding)

A broadway board as described above changes everything. A large part of the reason for B/3B the river is dependent on the likelyhood (specifically lack there of) of the villan having cold called with the rubbish hands that complete the straight as opposed to the other hands that make sets lower than ours.

If they are not likely to have played those straight hands in the first place, but do like to get out of line with middle sets then we can more safely extract value on the river.

I guess it comes down to a read and hero's comfort with the play. Since we had no read at the beginning it is difficult. Does the second posted hand mid way through the thread back up the B/3B line?

I guess it comes down to low limit villans being able to play ATC even against a raise - which is great - but in this case makes the straight a distinct possibility/probability given the action and makes getting a showdown cheaply (once the river card doesn't pair the board) the best play.

...ok but why would you bet. he bets everything when checked to yet doesn't raise everything when you bet into him. honestly this is the most important aspect of the hand and only jstill talked about it. don't bet here unless you plan on going all the way.

I think SS might be talking about the second hand posted in the thread by the OP.

I have seen some wierd sh*t at these games so the hype aggression could be almost anything. I will tend to give the guy some credit and just call but this really smells like an A T suited or an underset. I think that you are good but would still just call, even with your money. He has cold called 2 btf and "should" have some type of a hand but none of the straight cards would be in my range. They are in the range of many of your opponents though. This is what makes the game so beatable. Do as One Outer says and Just Call.
