I'd check, hope he doesn't bet too much and then call.

Prob wrong btw.

Check calling is probably the line, but there's no way oppo can bet too much in this spot.

Pot is 7k+ and we have about 2k back.

I'd prefer if he put as all-in than if he bet 1k in fact.
The former is more likely a bluff we can pick off.

what do you mean by 'hope he doesn't bet too much'? surely you're check calling any amount here? we made the decision to commit to this pot when we called the turn raise, that was the time if any to back out, not on the river with these stack sizes

[Ironside]

you still have 4700 back your not pot committed

[gatso]

no you don't. you started with 6100 and have put in 3675=2425 behind, less than 1/3 of the 7625 pot

7625

TURN    i bet 800 he calls pot 3075,   (his stack his around 5500)

i think that should read he calls, pot is now 3075

[gatso]

ahh, I see what you mean.

pointless thread atm then as me and tank have read the hh one way and you and silo another.

can you clarify please neves?

[MANTIS01]

Yeah, I would definitely check here with the intention of calling any bet. For all the times you're going to pay-off villain's full house, 9-J or 10 you will need to make chips from hands like K-J when you're ahead. So you need to give hands that would fold to a bet the opportunity to bluff at the pot to compensate you.
