The only reason I made a donkbet is because I think he would have checked as well. He'd been playing very tight and conservative. As it was, it didn't make a difference cause he didn't call anyway, but should I have let him take another stab? Link to post Share on other sites

Actuary 3 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 looks good to meI see no point in leading the flop but raither wait to see how many players and who bets, to see if we want to c/rThat Ace just hits players too often and I'm not liking if it gets raised behind us and we get isolatedI c./r this river most of the time; but given the info of villains nittiness, I understand your play Link to post Share on other sites
RISEorFall 0 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 That Ace just hits players too often and I'm not liking if it gets raised behind us and we get isolatedhmm good point, but i would hate to give up value to 77 or 56 type hands that may call down or atleast peel the flop Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Meh, I lead the flop.Act makes good point though.I donk the river vs a lot of players, c/r others. Way too many people check behind here in the games I play, to c/r most of the time. Link to post Share on other sites

Shimmering Wang 1 Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 If your opponent is weak/tight/passive/lame, then go ahead and fire the river. He probably bets/folds or checks too often to making check/raising profitable.As for the flop, I like checking this flop in this position if there are ANY reasonably aggressive players in the game, and most of the time otherwise, too. If we get heads-up against Ax for 2 bets, that'll suck. The pot's not really all that big, so we're not THAT concerned about letting medium pair, runner-runner, and gutshot type hands see a turn when they would've folded to a bet. If there were like 6 players in, then I'm more likely to fire. Leading out and getting called once by a tightish/passive player would also make the bet -EV. Check/call or check/raise in some instancesWang Link to post Share on other sites
RabidTortuga 0 Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I play it the same. I'm checking the flop looking for the c/r if there are 2+ players in back to me. Otherwise I just call. I donk the river most of the time unless I'm up against someone who can't help but bet. You could also be betting a weaker Ace here and using the flush as a bluff, so villian should probably have called the river getting almost 7-1, unless he knows you're not capable of making that play.
