Top two on a scary board vs Zeejustin in Caesar's 10k

[Requin]

PF I fold, flop I probably lead, anything but c/c turn seems bad, and I don't get why people want to lead the river. What's Z supposed to put you on.

You should raise the turn and then check the river. Call a smallish bet. I think it would be bad to check-raise the turn and the fire big on the river especially if you aren't intending to call a raise. I check-raise the turn, define your hand. I say a raise of 100K. If the river bricks, then I go into check call mode.

You are really only losing to a set or a straight at this point. I suppose KQ is a possibility, but ZJ could have a hand like KK and might think that you will pay him off with something a lot weaker.


I disagree with a lot of ppl who say this is a fold preflop. You have a hand that has potential and you have a big stack.
