easy value bet? I think getting check/raised here sucks though because I'm almost always beat but I think I should call.

Bet. Worse hands will call. If you get checkraised and they both stay in, I'm not so sure you should call. Other than that I think you should call.

Any particular reason why you bet the turn?

I almost always bet the turn against 1 or 2 opponents who have shown no aggression. I may be ahead if they're still drawing, and if i happen to be behind I still have outs.

With a board like that, your opponents likely hit some sort of hand. I don't think your best on the turn too often, and I believe you would have to fold if you got c/r on the turn. I'd probably check behind on the turn and fold the river UI.

With the way you played it, you have to bet the river every single time (that was one of the cards you wanted to catch right?)

stop smoking the wacky tobacky and bet that river

Not today my friend, not today.
Ok i figured it was a bet, that's why I asked.
Do you agree with aim about the turn?

I have no strong opinions, and do either.
I can see checking behind because I don't need a free sd here, foldng river UI will be easy.

Actuary, how do you feel about getting checkraised on that river? Let it go or call?

call, very fast

are we beating a worse A enough times to call a check/raise on that river? What else is check/raising us that we beat?

EDIT: even with a worse A we just split.

I think we hear from better hands before now, and if its a slowplayed J, I want the info.

I dont bet/fold too many pots over 11 BB with TP.

I was wondering the same thing. You get c/red a lot more on teh turn then on the river. Check the turn and hope to spike one of your outs.

I don't get why you want to bet the turn with nothing, and check the river when you make your hand.

This dawned on me after I played the hand, that's why I posted it :oops:

:-)

1 leak plugged.

and only like 99 more to go :shock:
I wouldn't say plugged. I'll more than likely keep doing this until I learn the hard way. But I'm trying...
