i'd c/r the turn, but as played this is ok.

pretty close
probably doesn't matter too much

I'd c/r that flop though vs an aggressive stealer

[yourface]

jba turn c/r isn't as good as c/r flop imo because his range is stronger

[Romulet]

I call this heads up. There's nothing to say he dosen't have a smaller pp, a jack or a 9. You're beating a good percentage of his range so I look him up.

[yourface]

button isn't betting a 9 or small PP for value here. maybe not even a J.

I'm constantly surprised at the total cheese and semibluffs that get triple barreled though

ok maybe but a free card isn't terrible, and our range is weaker on a flop c/r

Against a 9 or a pp that wants to go to SD a turn c/r is better than a flop c/r if he checks behind and gives free rivers

[freewheeler]

I'm definitely in the c/r flop camp. A player with his stats will often give up right there, and if he 3bets then you can fold the river. As played, it's a must call. WAY too many hands he could have that you beat.

guys i agree the river is a call but is a bet better?
