simo_8ball 1 Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Preflop is fairly loose, but I don't hate it.Bet the flop.I prefer a slighly smaller raise on the turn. Make it ~$15. You make more when you are ahead generally. He probably has a lower flush or the straight. Link to post Share on other sites
bdc30 0 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 I prefer a slighly smaller raise on the turn.Me too. The two words I want to use here are POT & CONTROL. Playing it the way you did, you're getting stacked by the ace high flush, and folding out anything that you beat. Being in position here, either just flat call the turn and see what he does on the river, or put in a ~10-15 raise and go from there. What's your move if he re-ups your big $21 raise?

bdc30 0 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Fold. I guess this is why 21$ sucksThat's the problem with K high flushes. A naked A will often run a bluff at this on the turn knowing you don't have the nuts. I honestly lean towards just a flat call here and wait and see what happens on the river. Naked A might run a bluff there, which you can call and show down the hand for the same price as raising it on the turn, whereas like you say if he runs the same bluff on the turn, you're probably folding. I'm very suspicious of the size of his turn bet. Who bets $2 in to a $24 pot? Link to post Share on other sites
