To fish or not to fish?

[Capitan23]

Villian seems like an average player. Hasn't bluffed alot, havn't seen him slow play anything.


I put this guy on a Ace, maybe a king, and I'm pretty confident about that read. I have 12 outs after flop (any Q or diamond). Would it be better to try and raise his bet on the flop instead of call to discourage a turn bet?

Here I'm 25% to hit, pot odds say nay. Do any of you call here?

what i did in white

<font color="white"> I folded. If we were both deepstacked I might have called figuring to win a [censored] if I hit. </font>

Well do you think villain can fold a king here at the minimum? If he is capable of at least that, then I would raise the flop and then check behind the turn UI. As played I fold due to you clearly not having odds here even if you stack him on the river.

Raise the flop. Build the pot. Get yourself the option of a free river, he'll probably check turn. Not to mention possible fold equity on flop.

As played, fold.

Fold the turn - raise the flop. If he pushes, call

that range is ridiculously tight as well.

I would probably make a pot size raise on the flop seeing as we have position. If villian shoves, I think we have to call with this draw (althought thats a maths problem probably). By raising this flop I hope villian who is OOP will check the turn and I'll probably take a free turn card, unless I have a good read that villian will prob fold to turn bet from us. This is just the same as raising for a free (techincally half price) turn card in limit holdem.

Not raising the flop here leaves money on the table

[jt51]

i'd fold

[55offsuit]

The best advices has already been giving. Raise flop. It's easy. It's also very likely we get a free river card playing that way since we have position.

That range posted is WAAAAAAY to tight, please add in a few couple 1 pair hands there and we are even more of a favorite.

[TheArtfulDodger]

same here: raise flop. the way it was played, fold.
