I like C/R jam spades 9/A on river, C/C or bet again if running a big bluff is unprofitable.

I really don't like a c/r here. I can't think of many hands aside from draws that might bet/fold here.

OTOH, he can easily have a T or worse, and a big bet here puts a lot of pressure on.

At the same time, if he just calls here, he's most likely drawing or has pretty weak made hand trying to play pot control.

I'd bet $400 and shove all rivers except maybe a K or Q, which you might c/c, maybe c/f if it feels right. Probably c/f a T or a J too.

I think Big_Jim is right on here, a big bet here looks very strong and folds out a lot of hands that he'd just call the flop with.

i like leading 400 on the turn

Depends on how much you have been 3beting. If you dont do it alot I think its terrible to bluff since he often will put you on AK/AQ/KQ and call down your draw. If you are 3beting lightly just get the money in (~360).

crai. one pair will often bet/fold. and if they check, fine by me.

i like this line alot but i think (esp HU) it really depends on the opponent-some people just wont fold top pair... i dont think a lead or a check raise is bad-they are just different and depend on the situation

**do most people take TWPs line with KQss?? and i assume that if you lead this hand you are calling a turn shove from villain no?

TheWorstPlayer · #9 07-04-2007, 10:55 AM

that's the problem with leading. you lead, they decide you're FOS and push AT, or QQ, which they might have checked behind, had you checked (or folded, had they bet). And then you're stuck either calling with not great odds, where your K/Q might very well not be outs, or folding a hand that had a lot of value. That's why I don't like leading. I'd probably lead only KK+ and of course call a push. I'd also c/r KK+ sometimes to balance when I do it with a draw.

I like c/c because I think if you bet you'll just inflate the pot, and the turn is a blank so he's just calling another street. You'll need to 3barrel this all out for it to work (and if a river blank comes you'll have to check it down), so just c/c with these stacks u'll have plenty on the river if u make ur straight.
