Flop: [Jc,8h,5h]
Hero bets, UTG calls, UTG+1 folds]

Turn: [Jc,8h,5h] [As]
Hero bets, UTG raises, Hero raises, UTG calls

River: [Jc,8h,5h] [As] [Jd]
Hero bets, UTG calls


What do you think? I assume the flop continuation bet is standard. When he pops the turn would you guys slow down thinking we are against 2 pair or set that waited to wait and raise a big bet? After he just calls the 3-bet, river bet is standard, right?
You got a date Wednesday, baby!

Man I'm not sure why, but I kinda like it. And I normally slow down to turn raises, but with all the donkeys who have been raising the turn on me lately, I think this is probably ok.

Of course, the river may have saved you from certain death by two pair smile.gif

I'd probably just call the turn after the raise and c/c the river. But then I've been running bad and need to get myself out of the groove. Maybe i'm missing some $$ on these plays.

A read would be good... so many Tags, or Tag wannabes are waiting to the turn to raise anything now, even as week as top pair, mid kicker, etc. I don't mind the play. I've been out of the groove since the old FCP went down.. I don't even know anymore... lol
