Post by: MC on January 31, 2009, 12:13:56 AM I'd only be checking the river to induce a bluff, which rarely works. Think you're right to bet as he calls with any diamond, and could always be a stubborn player that can't pass even without a diamond.
Problem with his shove over your bet is you know he pretty much has to have it... |
