The thread title goes "extracting value" and everybody says how they think that youre not beat.

I just read it over.
I push anyway because a scare card can slow down the action

How about checking the turn, letting him make a bluff at the pot on the river?

this guy likes his hand, and is playing for his whole stack. This turn is a push.

I like the way OP is posting his hands:

- Stopping the hand on each important action is good.
- Posting the remaining stacks is helpful

villain ended up having 7D 7H

I know there wan't really a way to get away from losing to his straight . . .

but was it bad play on his part or did he just play it correctly and come out on top

Your opponent is simply an idiot. Sometimes it will seem like your opponents are trying to lose on purpose but the cards work against their best efforts.

[jmgambler]

No, he played badly...... betting the turn here is horrendus, I would hope that you dont make the bet too high for me to call

alright thanks a lot thats what i figured, i was mainly interested in getting value out of the hand, seeing as the outcome will just about always be in my favor
