PokerBob--

Anyone who won't fold any pair here will have all sorts of no-pair hands here. Why does he need to put us on an 8 to fold 33 or K5 or 62s, anyway? After all, he's either a terrible hand-range analyst, or he knows that it's terrible to have a narrow betting range in Hero's spot.

in my experience, guys who flop pairs don't fold them.

PokerBob--

(A) I think that statement is nowhere near true.

(B) As I've said a few times, he doesn't need to fold a pair for the bet to be correct.

ok.

PokerBob--

Also, let me say again that an excellent player literally thought that any suggestion of checking in this spot had to be a joke.

I don't know. It's strongly opponent-dependent. I'll ask him when I get a chance. Certainly a turn bet is better than a check whether or not you plan to bluff the river.

well, i think you and your buddy are dead wrong, so let's just leave it at that.

fwiw, if he is betting the turn, checking the river would be horrible.

Fair enough. By the way, multi-ninja-editing aside, you've been very polite in this thread, so thanks. I hope I've been equally so.

But by checking the turn we lose value vs. b) and d) and when he donks the river do we call with A high? The 3 bet is obviously horrible but I bet the turn all day long w the nut draw 2 overs and gs.

[/ QUOTE ]

which bet has more value for us: the bet that we place and gets called on the turn, or the bet that we put in on the river when we call after the turn checks through?

I just saw this thread. I bet the turn, call the c/r, and river a flush.

betting the turn here is fine i dont know wtf we would check for when we can actually get a better hand to fold somewhat realistically and we have like 12ish basically nut outs if not. 3 betting after getting c/r however is of course horrendous bc you have just cost yourself 4 bets pretty much guaranteed to draw to a flush that should have cost 1-2 bets to draw to.

if villain is never folding a pair then fine check turn but honestly this is like one of the few spots in lhe where people fold a pair somewhat often so we may as well take advantage of it. also in live games we are getting c/r by draw here like never.

*edit*
if we check turn then calling a river bet is horrible. the pot is tiny and we have to give him credit for peeling the flop with no pair no draw on a coordinated board.

i also dont understand pbob's "if you bet turn you have to bet river". most people that stubbornly call turn again with 1 pair no redraw will insta payoff on river. some will fold but they are fairly rare. if they had worse flush draw and hit a pair that they might have folded then oh well.

an excellent player i spoke to said he bets this turn just about never. even spewmaster schneids said he only bets it 33-50% of the time. your buddy clearly needs to reevaluate a few things.

not sure what is worse, betting the turn or 3-betting the turn. both actions were horrible.

um... did the OP change the hand? It was a rainbow flop when I made my post.
