Semibluffing all in on turn is so cool

... but how smart is it?

BB is a decent tight aggressive player. I have no history with him. I have also played tight but raised some hands in LP.
Flop play?

He needs to fold around 40% of the time for me to break even. But it looks like he likes his hand.

Turn play is obvious and standard. Flop is meh. Were you planning to push over the top on any turn?

Heimdal · #7 03-01-2006, 05:07 PM

Opponent is HorseApple. I don't know if he is a regular.

I honestly didnt have any play for the turn when I called his checkraise. I try to make a plan for the rest of the hand on flop, but often forget it.
But I thought his hand range was wide when he checkraised.

If you're going to call the flop ck/raise, then you MUST push that turn. Otherwise fold to the flop ck/raise.

My flop "read" is mostly based on the fact that at lower limits people don't fastplay sets on dry boards.
I'm new to 10/20. Will tight aggressive 10/20 players often fastplay sets on boards like this?
