Hi. Playing a little limit hold'em. I haven't played it for months and I don't play it very often since I'm not a proven winner.

Good ?

I call.
6:1
silly donk bet.
probably lose.

all else, great, of course.

meh


with no read, I call river.
Often, I fold this. It's not a huge leak to call with no read.

Being me, I probably wince at the bet and call, though absent any reads, I'd be fairly sure he rivered the flush.

Folding is not a bad play, however, and in the long run is probably the winning one; I just personally have a hard time folding on the river to one bet.

Thanks. But I would possibly check QQ with A and K on flop against 4 or 5 opponents ?

The only hands I think you can beat on the river are QJ/JT.

You played it well.

I missed flush coming in.

good play.

somedays I call.
I like to lose money to see what they had.

Edit: Give me 2 more bets in pot, I call it 80% of the time, donk bets bother me!

LOL

Not a bad play by any means, though I may throw out a continuation bet anyway depending on my position. In EP, check/fold is probably the "correct" play against multiple opponents (Especially in micro-limit), yes.

Actuary: That's my big problem at the moment--calling down when simply folding on a given street would obviously be the better option because "I THINK I know what they have...but I HAVE to see it to be SURE."

to me, a lot of it is his waiting till river.
W/o Flush Draw, I usually call these late bets.
They can be deperate mis-draw attempts.
Most other better hands have raised/bet by now

I would most likely cringe and call the river... I think you'll be ahead more often then you suspect. Villain could easily have a smaller PP as well, and we all know that donks will wake up and bet with far worse than that in these situations. I, like Actuary, like showdowns.

Also, what do we do if we are raised on either the flop or the turn?

Can I assume a bet/fold line, or possibly a bet/call on the flop, fold turn UI?

Or, if we only get called on the flop, a bet/fold on the turn?

Thanks.

It's a nicely executed WA/WB line.

That shouldn't upset you :wink:

Play it about the same as you would if you were HU with a pp that flops 3rd pair.

if BB has a weak Ace?
good point.

I donk bet too sometimes.
