imo its very close
he calls the turn bet
could have QJ slowroll
he had no fld odds on turn - but call
i play this line very often if i have Jxwith draw
and i know opp. have most of the time the J too
most of the time its an split
river missplayt thought
i bet half pot river - dont want blufft since you are oop
call 10bucks if he shoves

if river comes blank i check for induce

[terp]

lol did he really call a 150% PSB on the turn? awesome.

i'd have just put him all in on the river myself

[holyfield5]

ok so i folded, no results, i mean donkeys can call this with a wide range but a good chunk of that is stupid FDs so i think fold was right

[terp]

if i checked i'd probably fold too...

[filsteal]

Villain might be v-betting a straight here, because your line sure doesn't look like a FD in his mind. But that's still only a chop with Jx (and a loss to QJ), so I guess it's still a fold.

you use blocking bets much? i use them pretty much all of never, if you are advocating their use, please give reasons why they are good.

my opinion is just those situations where the worse card for us falls on the river, we may lose some value letting them go but we lose a lot more if we still try to get the pot, opinions?

[terp]

i don't block, i check or i shove

[SinkRox]

imo theyre not good if you ever want to get to msnl+.

they may always be good vs donks though [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
