[Chicos75]

Sorry for the Raw Hand but the Converter did not Work.
Can I make more on this hand? Call the raise and push the turn?

Call raise, slowplay a bit... Board is not draw heavy at all, let him do some action, I'd check/call turn and lead river, depending on his betting size I'd raise turn, just try to get all his chips in [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]



€dit: I just misread some of the HH. I'm correcting myself: Depending on your opponent I'm calling and leading turn or check/raising turn... If he's a maniac, c/r turn probably, if he's a calling machine, call and lead out on turn imo... Very read dependent

I like the lead. Call the raise. He'll either bet his hand for you, if it's good, or maybe bluff if it's bad. Because you've led the flop, if you call the raise, the pot will be big enough that it shouldn't be too hard to get the rest in and that's a very safe board for you to flop the nuts.

God I wish you hadn't posted results on this one, because I was thinking like "he should have just called that raise" but then I realized that that was prolly because I saw that he folded.

Actually I think stacks are so deep here, that there is a need to build a pot eventually setting up a river shove.

Hm, this is probably true, might have affected my idea of slowplaying as well [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

--> Don't post results, keep it until your last action always...

Im just calling this raise with the intention of checking any non dangerous turn. If something like a 9 or J falls on the turn, I would lead out.
