hi johnclay,
i think you should probably fold to the checkraise.

[streetz]

is fishtank scott fischman?

[Mad Genius1]

nigel,

I think that you are way off with the turn check behind. I'd also fire about 3000 on the river when checked to.

Also, in the future it would help if you gave a description of yourself and villian.

in that article thomas keller has KJ for top pair and after calling a flop bet, and then scott fischman checks raises the river with a set after the turn went check-check.

you should have known.

Like I said, this was probably the worst played hand I've had the honor of being behind for the last 3 months. It made me throw up a little bit in my mouth.

I don't know [censored] about high stakes HU poker, so I'll just paraphrase ray zee.

"when you bet weak you are often going to be playing for a large pot."
