Bet, Raise, Rereaise - WWYD?

[billy the punter]

Another WWYD thread from me, sorry. A real-life one this time. This is (very) slightly similar to the poser recently posted by deadlydave in the cash section which created plenty of debate. There were still two tables at this stage. ***** Betfair Poker Hand History for Game 559480524 ***** NL Texas Hold'em $20 Buy-in + $2 Entry Fee, Level:3 Blinds(25/50-(no ante)) - Friday, August 07, 23:09:22 GMT 2009 5 Seats GTD Next Day Sat to $18k GTD #267296 Table 1 9-max (Real Money) Seat 5 is the button Total number of active players : 6 Seat 1: teamster99 ( 1,927.50 ) Seat 2: kinnier ( 1,100 ) Seat 5: GOLFGOD ( 3,980 ) Seat 6: Mrs Splash ( 2,810 ) Seat 7: Harold Boom ( 2,045 ) Seat 9: Sportsman ( 4,037.50 ) Tourney Level:3 Blinds(25/50-(no ante)) Mrs Splash posts small blind [25] Harold Boom posts big blind [50] ** Dealing down cards ** Dealt to Harold Boom [ Jd, Td ] Sportsman folds teamster99 folds kinnier calls [50] GOLFGOD calls [50] Mrs Splash folds Harold Boom checks ** Dealing Flop ** [ Ks, Ah, 2c ] Harold Boom checks kinnier checks GOLFGOD checks ** Dealing Turn ** [ Qd ] Harold Boom checks kinnier checks GOLFGOD checks ** Dealing River ** [ Kc ] Harold Boom bets [131.25] kinnier raises to [262.50] GOLFGOD raises to [960] :\ WWYD?

Re: Bet, Raise, Rereaise - WWYD? I'd fold, but think I was folding the best hand, and hope kinnier called and lost. Even if kinnier calls and win the hand, the blinds are only 25/50 and I have over 1850 chips left. I don't mind the check on the turn although I would have made a 90 bet there. I can see why you checked - preflop and flop betting aren't indicative of either of them holding a 2-pair hand which could improve past you, but I wouldn't want a stray J or T to hit their inside draw for free to split the pot. I think kinnier could have an ace-rag type hand here that he wanted to slow play to get chips in on a later street as he is in need of them, whilst GOLFGOD looks like he has a King, which he didn't want to bet with on the A-hi flop, but I can't see him having a full house - K2 would have bet the turn imo as would 22 when the high straight draw came, AK would have raised pre-flop, the only hand I would be worried about being behind is KQ but again surely would have bet the turn to protect it. I think you're ahead but I would fold :unsure
