[econ_tim]

Continuing my series on blind play:FullTilt $1/$2Preflop: econ_tim6 folds, SB completes, econ_tim checks.Flop: (2 SB) [5s 3s Ac]SB bets, econ_tim SB calls.Turn: (3 BB) [Td]SB checks, econ_tim checks.River: (3 BB) [2s][b]SB bets, econ_tim calls.Final pot: 5 BBSo I should have bet the turn here because 1) I probably have the best hand, 2) betting could get my opponent to fold, 3) my opponent probably has 6 outs so I shouldn't give him a free card.Is that right?

i mostly play NL cash but im starting to figure out limit...i would have bet the turn to try to take the pot down there...i hate giving free cards unless i have the nutz going into the river...i would have bet but then again im new to this game you guys call "limit". :wink:

I fold to the SB's flop bet. Even if he's betting a draw, odds are he'll hit something to beat you.If you're going to raise that flop though, stay on the gas. You might make him fold.

Yeah, I think I'd have to bet the turn to keep the aggro up, representing that ace.I'm a fan of the flop raise because it probably saved you a bet.

I probably would have bet the turn to follow up on your aggression on the flop.I don't think the SB has anything and I believe the check on the turn gave him the green light to bluff you off the pot.

If SB wanted to bet with nothing, why not raise preflop instead?I fold the flop because I'm likely way behind and not enough money in the pot to justify catching up.

you have to bet that turn.
