Vade 0 Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 Again, I don't think that betting here gives you any indication of what hand he might be holdingI'd check raise the turn for information on possible handsI would think that because this reveals whether or not he has any interest in continuing Link to post Share on other sites
CoolHandLaw 0 Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 do you mean 'why' did you call with J4s in the SB? If not then I'd like to pose that question :-) Link to post Share on other sites

wrto4556 0 Posted April 13, 2005 Author Share Posted April 13, 2005 I'd check raise the turn for information on possible handsNah. The turn bets are too big to put in 2 for information. That's some expesive ass info.Check/raising the flop would be an idea... Link to post Share on other sites
akishore 0 Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 why exactly did you check-call the flop, and not bet out?regardless, if you check, this seems more like a raise or fold situation when it gets back to you. why exactly did you only call?aseem Link to post Share on other sites
wrto4556 0 Posted April 13, 2005 Author Share Posted April 13, 2005 I dunno...I normally bet out or C/r. But I didn't want to bet out on this draw heavy board, so I was planning to check/raise...but decided I wasn't getting anyone out of the pot, so I told myself "bet a blank turn and fold to a raise".???

cdddc75 0 Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 Btw, MP3 is horrible. His call means nothing. Yay or nay...but more importantly, why?A few days on 3/6 and you're already insulting Smash?Nice post. Link to post Share on other sites

KDawgCometh 2 Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 chris, is this a 1/3 blind structure or a 2/3 blind structure. If its 1/3 then there is no way you can call in teh sb without a few more limpers. if its 2/3 then by all means make this PF call. THere's two things you can do on this flop, either bet out or CR. I don't think calling is an option here, just too weak with TPNK. If your gonna do that then just fold to the bet Link to post Share on other sites

Like I said betting out or CRing are your best options. I don't think there is too much of a difference either way in long term EV IMO. For anyone who says you can complete with any two suited from the sb, the blind structure matters a ton. in a 1/2 blind structure you can definetly do this if there is gonna be a fourway to the flop. In a 2/3 blind structure almost anything can be playable to a relative degree. In a 1/3 blind structure you really need to tighten up to almost MP or CO standards Link to post Share on other sites
akishore 0 Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 yeah, the 1/3 blind point is a good one.as for his flop move, i was wondering the same thing, but i can see the justification in waiting for a turn card since the board is draw heavy and neither a bet nor a checkraise will protect his hand.but in all honesty, i might just fold the hand. reverse implied odds. if you're not beat already, you're going to end up paying a hand that beats you by showdown more than you'll get paid if your hand does hold up (since the board is draw heavy and you can't make a higher pair [overcards can come]).is check-folding here too weak/tight?aseem Link to post Share on other sites
wrto4556 0 Posted April 14, 2005 Author Share Posted April 14, 2005 is check-folding here too weak/tight?yes. You are missing out on bets. Link to post Share on other sites
