Fold this river?

Postby dsierpin » Tue Jun 20, 2006 3:29 am

I've been playing limit off and on for a few years now, doing some bonus whoring and trying to learn the game. Unfortunately, I'm still pretty terrible at it. But I'm trying to learn, and from what I've seen this forum is a great resource. One of my main weaknesses is calling river bets even when I know I'm beat. I'm trying to get away from that. Here's an example of such a situation. Villian is 36/20/.67 over 61 hands.

Poker Room skin
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $1/$2
10 players


Pre-flop: (10 players) Hero is MP3 with [Kd] [Ks]
UTG calls, 2 folds, MP1 calls, MP2 folds, Hero raises, 4 folds, UTG calls, MP1 calls.

Flop: [2d] [5s] [3h] (7.5SB, 3 players)
UTG checks, MP1 checks, Hero bets, UTG calls, MP1 folds.

Turn: [3d] (4.75BB, 2 players)
UTG checks, Hero bets, UTG calls.

River: [4s] (6.75BB, 2 players)
UTG bets, Hero folds.
Uncalled bets: 1BB returned to UTG.

Results:
Final pot: 6.75BB

A few hands before this, the same guy raised under the gun and it was folded around to me on the button. I held QJs and 3-bet, not fearing his raise (at the time he had raised every single hand he'd entered) and wanting to drive out the blinds. I flopped a Q, he called me down with ace high and went on to express his frustration in the chat box. I figured he'd call me down with anything here, but his river bet combined with his low PFA stats made me think I was beat. Is this too weak-tight?

Now that I'm re-hashing all of this, I'm thinking damn, I really should have called here. With all that money already in the pot I only have to win 1 in 7 of these situations to make it a winning play. What do you say guys?

thanks in advance
