or 160, u said they will passive so just take the lead, sets will raise so u can get it in and overpairs that dont raise will take you to the felt.

Any argument for waiting for one more card?

you're too deep to do anything but build the pot if youre against passive players

JNash · #6 01-10-2007, 02:07 AM

Meaning too great a chance of pairing the board and risking a boat? Remember, the flop is rainbow, so no real flush danger.

Bakes · #7 01-10-2007, 03:08 AM

anything that would make a boat on the turn will probably raise your lead, maaybe not bottom 2 but you have to get value from this now.

There are more hands that will pay you off now than there are hands that will improve to second best on the turn that wouldn't call a bet on the flop.
