1/2 Live Turn a huge draw, push?

[Bluegrassplayer]

Yeah standard bet here was anywhere from 8-15 preflop, 8 dollars usually getting atleast 3 callers. I'm just afraid that if I take a free card here I'm almost always forced to check/fold on the river if it's a blank, and if a good card does come up, he's got to see that I've hit a draw, it's too obvious on this board.

I hate to play Devils advocate but you just said you basically knew nothing about the guy its the first hand he played but you are going to outplay him?

[Bluegrassplayer]

Generally soft game, there are two players that I have seen there which I would not want to play heads up. He is also the friend of a person who is a total donkey. Also he bought in for $100 into a normally $200 buy in game, I didn't consider him much of a threat.

Don't try to make money from donkeys by "outplaying" them, make money from them by taking them to valuetown.

Well this hand turned out to prove that last point completely:

I went all in, missed the river, he turned over 8/qs.

if this is NL 100 live, i just take a free card. I found ppl are just in the mood to gamble way to often, so there isnt much FE .
