50NL: What do you call with here?

[RapidEvolution]

As soon as you asked, I understood why you were asking, and that's something that I rarely consider at the table. Losing the hand is one thing, but being able to smash donks for 200BB in one hand is certainly at least as important. Thanks Berge. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Everything better than 88.

*edit* just read the entire thread.

1) J8 and J9 are counterfeited 2pair and are just as good as J2. I hope you meant T8 and T9.

2) With T9 I'd bet the turn.

*2nd edit* misread the post, ignore the previous #3

Bet the turn. River bet is just silliness. Even bad players can fold KQ to you there. If Villain has boat, he's gonna stack off to this line. However, he probably value-stacks himself anyway if you just bet regular on the river.

Given that a million and one draws came in on the river, I thought villain might call here with a straight or flush. If this is bad, how much should I be betting here?

I don't think a reasonable player ever will call with a str8 or flush here. Value bet 1/2 pot to full pot, depending on how loose he is on calling big bets.

[/ QUOTE ]Hmmm, when all I have left is a PSB then a push is a "regular bet" for me on the river. Perhaps I am too aggressive?

Edit: nevermind- I read the decimal as in the wrong spot.

Huh? Am I misreading the hand? Pot is $4.40 and Hero shoves for $48.30 (aka 11 times the size of the pot).

[Jeff76]

haha- no, I misread the hand.

I agree that a normal value bet is better here.
