25NL hits river -- what\'s your recommendation?
Sorry about the format, and I’m trying to remember details as best I can.
No reads. I’m fairly new to table. Ultimate Bet, 25NL, 10 players Villain in EP ($15) bets pot, one caller from MP. Hero ($25) is button with 9T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and calls. Everyone else folds. Flop comes KTXr (three players) Villain bets .25 into a ~$3 pot MP calls, hero calls Turn is a blank. Villain bets $1 into a ~$4 pot. MP calls, hero calls River is a T (no flush). Villain bets $2 into ~$7 pot. MP folds Hero?

Re: 25NL hits river -- what\'s your recommendation?
It looks like Villain is betting K-rag (low kicker). I would bet the pot. If he has something he might call (he's pot committed). If he's bluffing (and he's intelligent) he'll fold.

Re: 25NL hits river -- How off was my thinking?
Was I totally off: I thought that if I raised and was re-raised, I'd have to fold; if I raised, a worse hand would fold.
I honestly couldn't see the point of raising. If anything, I figured I'd make a little more yet risk the pot. Maybe I'm even weaker than I thought, which is frightening.

[/ QUOTE ] The river raise/fold line can be a little intimidating at first, but use it often enough and you'll become very comfortable with it. And you're nuts if you think a worst hand will auto muck to a raise(especially a minraise). [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: 25NL hits river -- How off was my thinking?
I just didn't know if winning another $2 was worth the risk. I think I was a little scared because I hit a nut flush on a paired board last weekend with a player betting similar, and I lost to a FH (he had a pp that hit).
Anyway, the player was an idiot with AK, and MHIG. In the chat he wrote something to the effect of ""I’ll get you if you keep playing those ***** hands." LOL. Thanks for letting me play with you. Wish I weren't so chicken. He busted a few orbits later.
