    Insta fold. Theres no hand he can have your ahead of really, he may have called on flop with qj, or 87, both of which are ahead of you..theres no missed flush draw for him to bet either


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,696 ✭✭✭Hectorjelly


    If he is playing aggressive then call, your certainly ahead here some % of the time and you will get some info from whatever he shows down here. From my experience of the opponennt I would fold.

    I think its a fold.

    If you lead at the turn it might be a call but if your opponent is aggresive I cant see how you wouldnt be able to find a better situation to get it in than this one.

    Fold let him think he owns you, reraise with the nuts watch him pay you off

    If you wait for this then he has owned you

    His check on the turn was either weakness or an attempt to trap. I didnt think he had a ten and with the rest of the rags on the board, I thought the only thing he could be beating me with was an overpair, but he would normally reraise preflop with this.

    I figured that calling here will probably be EV over a long period, or either marginally + or -. I called an he had KJ :eek: and then abused me for ten minutes in the chat window.

    HJ can you empty out ur inbox, ive tried pming you but it says full.

    Fold without a shadow of a doubt. You have absolutely nothing and its a very scary board. realisitic chance hes bluffing but its not worth it to find out.

    it's nice to take the pot with your call but i don't think i can justify calling that 9 times out 10. I'd fold. Chasing hands like this will cost you over time i think.

    Well I think that 50% of the time, I'll win this pot.

    Added to this, everyone at the table is suddenly opening up their notes, saying that I'll call large river bets with Ace high.

    1. They'll think twice about trying to buy hands against me with nothing
    2. They may overbet big ones thinking i'll pay them off

    If this call is EV or slightly -EV I still think it's big +EV, if that makes sense :D
