Results:
Final pot: $25.35

I made a small turn bet to induce villain to continue calling with a worse jack, under the impression that he would check behind on the river. I felt it was a way to possibly get a cheap showdown and at the same time allow me to shove the river for 1/2 the pot and get called by a worse flush if I hit. Anyone disagree?

Also when I bet the turn I planned on calling an all in, anyone disagree?

Anyone dislike the river check/fold? Given villain's stats I felt like his shove is the flush very often there.

A villan with those stats isnt calling your turn bet with a worse jack. Infact, he probaly wont call your prefop raise or your flop raise.

Check the turn, fold/call a small rivr bet

I think even a 14.4/3.2 is raising JJ preflop. If he's tight enough that he folds a jack there does he play a flush draw on a paired board with the odds I gave him? What's villain's range when he calls my flop bet, 1 combination of 33? lol..

I am confused. What hand do you put him on? Do really think a villan is calling you down like this and shoving with KJ or QJ?

Its obvious he has a flush draw on the flop. Probaly KQh or something. His overall AF is quite low, bit of a bitch and probaly realises you have the Ah so he wants to see the turn before shoving, he also hopes you shove the river.

Also, i dont think your getting the odds to call the turn if villan decided to shove.

if we did not have the Ah i would follow teddie's line. i think are hand is way too good on turn to play it so weak. if he had a high aggro factor i would c/r all in. since he does not i would bet 3/4 pot and shove whatever we have left on river.

I agree with this.

But since we do have the Ah doesn't betting less than 3/4 of the pot seem good because we are on a draw often when called so controlling the bet amount is good? Or is the $6 bet just inviting a shove?

If we don't improve on the river whats the point of shoving whatever we have left against this villain? Isn't that just spew?

I shut down on the turn. The cold call is scary from a nit. He either has trips quads or a flush draw here 85% of the time. Your top pair is drawing on the turn. I check call a 1/2 pot or less bet trying to spike a jack or the 4th heart.

When he calls my flop bet I put him on a FD, some suited jack, or once in a blue moon 33.

No, once he calls me on the turn worse jacks are pretty much out of his range. On the off chance that he somehow does have a worse jack and call the turn I think he's checking through on almost all rivers.

If he shoves my turn bet I'll give him credit for a flush. I then have 7 flush outs and 4 boat outs and I'm getting a tiny bit more than 3:1 pot odds. How is folding to the turn shove correct?

Given all this, and the fact that you advocate calling a small bet on the river, I don't understand why you don't like a turn bet.

I thought so, this is why this part confused me.

Calling a turn shove is right, got my maths wrong. in that case i think i'd just shove myself. Thats the only way your going to get all of his stack, if a [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3, or J drop he's probaly gonna fold the river. Dont know how advisable that is either though.
