ojideagu Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Re: Question of the Week 4 Hmmmmm Interesting If he's decent I'll prob bet the turn, as he prob won't pay me off if I hit a flush or straight. Might even end up a split pot. Then again checking can also work and get an extra River bet if you hit and he doesn't believe you did. He didn't 3bet pre-flop or raise the flop so you could prob rule out some hands like a set, Jack-10, Ace-Jack, flush draw, Ace King, Ace Queen, Queens or Aces. He could have King-Jack, King-10, Queen-Jack, King Queen, 8-9, pair of 9's all possible. If he was a fish who pays off Flushes and straights when he has top pair I might check. Then again if he calls a turn and river with top pair, betting is also an option. Main thing is he probably won't fold to a turn bet. I feel there is often never a clear answer to these things.

gettingfatter Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Re: Question of the Week 4 This is tricky, it looks like a barrel but really you need to know what hes capable of calling in the sb. I dont play the stakes but i would assume a lot of regs wouldnt be flatting TT JJ or 44 vs another reg, can he have JT or KT? Given this i would say that your/our range is way stronger than his and that a barrel folds out a lot and is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nade Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Re: Question of the Week 4 Hard to answer etc. It's so unlikely he has a set as on that flop people often c/r those, so the K improves so much of his range to either 2pair+ or pair and straight draw or pair and flush draw, although we have a lot of clean outs i don't think a 3barrel gets him to fold much so i'd check back turn, kind of disguising our flush draw too and not bluffing the river if it bricks.

socky1 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Re: Question of the Week 4 It depends what perception of me is too, but normally I would check. Ive Fired 2 barrels and the flop looks probable to have hit him if hes calling the flop bet hes almost certianlly calling the turn bet.

teaulc Posted February 5, 2011 Author Share Posted February 5, 2011 Re: Question of the Week 4 Correct Answer: Second Barrel A king is a great second-barrel card at the best of times. Add in the fact it adds four more outs and it's a great card here. This spot is an easy barrel with like 90% of your range. The fact that even if you're called you have the nut flush draw makes it even easier. So fire to $34 and see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
