Title: should i have called on the river? Post by: richmagpies on September 13, 2006, 11:15:35 PM Grateful for any comments on my play or any advice.
Small stakes STT, by hand 13 only 5 left, so obviously a loose game with people going all in with crap and busting out lol. I've been playing tight and in hand 7 I have folded Jd Jh on the button after a bet, raise and re-raise, original raiser had Aspades Ahrt, all in re-raiser had Ad Kd, so good fold pre-flop until the Jc on the flop along with the 7c 7d which would have given me a full house and tripled me up grrrrrr lol. Doubled up with Jc Jd in hand 15 when chip leader couldnt put down his Aspades Td Anyway hand in question is H26, blinds 50/100, approx chip counts are I have 3.7k on the button, sb has 4.2k, bb has 3k, utg has 2.7k, next guy has 4.5k so not much in it. I pick up Qs Jc on the button, utg folds, next player folds, i raise to 300 primarily as a steal but happy to see flop too given its now 3 handed after the 2 folds and im on the button. sb and bb both call, flop is Kh Ts 8h, we all check. Turn is 9c hitting my gutshot to give me the nut straight - bingo! :D sb bets 800, bb folds, i re-raise to 1600, sb calls. River is Kc, sb checks, i bet 800, he raises all in for his last 1.3k, i call and he turns over Kd 8c to give him full house and bust me grrrr lol. Was i right to bet on the river after his check? Or should I have just checked it down and not given him the option of re-raising? No flush on the board and the only hands beating me (or so i think) were TT, 99, 88, KK or a K with a T98 so basically 7 hands. Awful play by me? or him? or was i just unlucky that he hit one of his 4 outs? Should i have raised more preflop and been happy with the blinds? Happy to be told I'm a fish/muppet/chimp if it helps me improve! lol Cheers! Title: Re: should i have called on the river?
