creative raise on 4th, I don't know how much I like the 3rd call with two dead diamonds, but it's certainly fine to continue after improving 4th.

PoorLawyer · #3 10-10-2006, 12:49 AM

Looks good to me. With 3 diamonds out I might just call 4th, but I think the raise works to get it heads up in case you back into 2 pr.

Anyone wait till 5th street for the raise?

dsaxton · #5 10-10-2006, 03:33 AM

I think the 5th street check is very bad. Betting and 3-betting wins more bets, and doesn't allow him to check behind.

Otherwise it is good. I think the 4th street raise is excellent.

This is a feel based decision IMHO, if villain is a "cyclops:, meaning he only has eyes for his hand then I prefer the bet/3-bet line. Otherwise I think the c/r is best.

Totally agree. Although it all works out well for Bremen in the end, on 5th street he needs to know whether his trips are still ahead and the best way of finding out is to bet.

Not raising 4th would be criminal IMHO, your hand definitely does better headsup.

5th betting out looks better to me without any reads, but if you have any particular reason to think he's betting here then checkraise could be ok. Really sucks if he checks behind though.

Thank you everyone. I lost to a higher boat, not sure he if had 2 pair or trips on 4th as he probably would shut down regardless fearing a boat on 5th (I doubt he could imagine I'd raise 4th with an underpair :0)
