what would you bet on the turn?


Recommended Posts

The hand below occurred in a $25 NL game on party. The CO likes to see a lot of flops and plays very loose. I believe I played the hand correctly preflop with a raise of 5 x the big blind, and then a pot sized bet on the flop, but my question is, should I have made a larger bet on the turn to press the action, or maybe even pushed it in? Thanks again for your input.SteveParty Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (9 handed) BB ($25.5)UTG ($20.5)UTG+1 ($32.15)MP1 ($29.9)Hero ($33.3)MP3 ($19.85)CO ($24.2)Button ($24.2)SB ($25.15)Preflop: Hero is MP2 with K:heart:, K:club:.

I would bet, but i would bet more, maybe like 8. Really depends on how quickly he called the flop bet, and your read on him. Move in on the river, if you're gonna call an all in. The turn bet looks really weak.

When i make someone pay for a draw, i make them pay for the draw. If you put him on a draw on the flop, he mightve paired up with his draw. Maybe he folds it to a pot bet, at least he's making a mistake if he calls. Not the case with $5, he actually is getting a little better than 2.5 to 1. Eh, i know what you mean though Absolute. I just get a little apprehensive with KK. I just don't think $5 gets you as much information as you would like.
