I think a lot of it refers to the notion that "the only hand that will call you is a better hand", otherwise they will fold to a river value bet.
consider this situation, say you have AA, the flop is 65J, 2 clubs, u raised the pot PF, now u bet the pot and get called on the flop. 2 of spades on the turn, you bet 3/4 pot, he calls again. then the 5 pairs on the river, no club. you check to him, to make it look like you were betting on the draw, wanting him to go away, now all of a sudden he thinks his AJ is good, so he decides to bet or overbet the pot.
Is that a situation you would check and call the river?Statistics: Posted by Suhleafs — Tue Jan 18, 2005 7:36 pm
