Default Re: woohoo! set in reraised pot, first hand of HU

I'd definitely bet this turn.

1) It'll be a lot tougher for him to get rid of AK type of hand on the river when the pot is bigger.
2) You can get more value out of AK type of hand in case he doesn't have the flushdraw.
3) You can let him draw if he doesn't have AK type of hand and also inflate the pot.
4) Profit.

there's no way he's folding AK if the river is not a club (and he has no club)

Fair enough, but by betting the turn, you still get more value out of draws that miss the river, plus who knows, maybe he'll put you on KQ on this play and can get rid of AK [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] I think betting the turn is good because it gets more value out of a lot of his range which does NOT call a river shove and the range that calls river shove, probably calls turn bet as well so you don't lose there.

i dont hate how this hand was played. because when u shove the river he cant put u on a pair of kings or three nines. ur river shove looks like a busted fdraw/nothing so he could call u real light with any pp/queen/a hi here.

nothing wrong with betting turn, tho.

Looks good.

Betting small on the turn looks fishy and I think checking behind is slightly better than pushing.
