Easy river fold with TPTK?

RonMexico · #1 02-04-2006, 11:24 PM

BB just sat down a few hands ago, so no real read on him. CO is a 50/4/.70.
2/4 Hold'em (6max)

Preflop: Hero is Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
2 folds, CO calls, Hero raises, SB folds, BB calls, CO calls.

Flop: (6.50 SB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 players)
BB checks, CO checks, Hero bets, BB calls, CO calls.

Turn: (4.75 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 players)
BB checks, CO checks, Hero bets, BB calls, CO calls.

River: (7.75 BB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 players)
BB checks, CO checks, Hero bets, BB raises, CO folds, Hero ...

Final Pot: 11.75 BB

Easy fold against unknown 2/4 player? Or do I make a mistake by not calling?

I call this, could be a queen, busted flush draw or some random hand. The pot is pretty big.

Call and take notes either way

You're going to lose this a lot, but you only have to be right less than 10% of the time... and I think that's realistic.

I think you'll see a Q, a 7, or a K w/ weaker kicker. You're behind a 7 ahead of a K and a Q except for KQ...

I make this call all the time... BB could be making a play? or just doing something wacky, you have a very good hand not to call this

I call down given 11 to 1 odd

I 3-bet against an unknown before I fold this. You might be laying down too many winners if you think this is close, maybe post some more 'close' decisions so we can have a look.

In all honesty...I think ur beat a buttload of the time...and I'm not sure if this would be a profitable call. But I have to call this cuz the pots big and I just gotta see.

I think calling these types of bets is a leak in my game. It pains me to fold this but I dont see many river check raise bluffs into 2 people.

The pot is laying you solid odds to call, so I suppose you have to call but I routinely find these types of calls tough. Other than a complete bluff the only hands I can put villian on are any with a 7 or KQ.

i might make this call just to see the villans hand. I think that even if you lose this pot (most likely will) the information gained would be worth the $4.
