Bet more on the flop and open bet the turn.

And why am I betting the turn, to fold out AK or get value from AQ?

Corsahk, I think I like your line. A case could be made for a river blocker/value bet, but I think I shut down on the turn. I'd say villain is gonna be kinda strong most of the time here.

Getting value from AQ is just as much lol.

corsakh · #7 08-09-2007, 08:07 AM

I was thinking to shove river. Is this a leak?

Probe shove? Probe shoving is always +EV. Let's you know where you stand in the hand.

Seriously corsakh this would be a huge leak. clearly. everything you beat folds and everything that beats you calls.

Played it fine IMO.

You prob won pot against AQ or QJ or something like that.

I think you played this well.

Flop bet was nicely sized to get a call from weaker hands but price out the weaker draws. No point in betting the turn since a non K folds and a K raises or slowplays you.

I guess a bet on the river could be in order for pure value since you really are probably ahead now but out of position you could be facing a large reraise and no idea what to do. Obviously you'd call a reasonable bet on the river.
