If he had a strong hand, wouldn't he bet something to get value for it (in case I check behind)? If he had a medium hand (queen/middle kicker), could he confidently checkraise on a board with straight draws? <br /><br />So you can rule out strong hands and medium hands right there.matt taghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08082969194551315973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-803565406050693453.post-52872264272143345242009-07-06T02:33:39.882-04:002009-07-06T02:33:39.882-04:003betting the flop with 2nd pair?
I like your deci...3betting the flop with 2nd pair?<br /><br />I like your decisions until the river. I don't think I'd value bet 2nd pair there even against a maniac - it put you in a really ugly spot. And judging by his play, it looks like you've a big enough edge to take it down risk free.Forrest Gumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06314271152182792365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-803565406050693453.post-6551651092784280602009-07-05T23:54:38.721-04:002009-07-05T23:54:38.721-04:00Congrats on the win.
If he had some nut-type hand...Congrats on the win.<br /><br />If he had some nut-type hand, would he go all in or make a value bet? It prob felt to you (on some level) that he was trying to push you out.<br /><br />Did you consider raising on the flop to avoid a nasty guess later?Memphis MOJOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12653631347560307425noreply@blogger.com
