NL 50 - AK, turns TPTK but villain fires on the river

YKMM · #1 07-19-2007, 10:28 AM

Villain is 33/7/1 (100). Turn is what a perceived to be a WA/WB behind situation so I checked to induce a river bluff. I was prepared to call many rivers bluff, but this seems unusual large for these stakes. Comments on my turn play and any suggestions for the river?

You can't very induce a bluff and then not call a reasonable bet. It is only a pot sized bet here. You are good here way more than 33% of the time.

I can't put him on a hand that you're ahead of except 87s 45s 75s or some bizarre float with AJs, ATs. So I'd fold. I don't know if he'd turn 77 88 into a bluff, isn't that a advanced play?

I'd have to call this. I just can't imagine what villain has or what he thinks you have. Also, you wanted him to bluff -- you got it. Make a note and move on.

BTW, I would have bet the turn.

Dont bet turn, check is fine. call river bet he has a wide enough range here for 2/1 pot odds. I would expect a set or a bluff here. did you call? what did he have?

Results:

I called (as I mentally planned on the turn). Villain has 99.

i have a hand which i will post later which is pretty much same as this with AA and i played it the same, you cant do nothing about it. what did i say its a bluff or set, a bluff with credibility or a set trying to make a street of betting up.
