    1/2 party
    Villain is way bad. 50/10 over 50 hands..not aggressive.
    He calls down light so everybody optimally persistently trys to bluff him. k.
    I had asked him to shift around a little to accommodate my broken leg - but alas he would nae budge - this has lead to a knifey cuttable ambiance

    I have Js Ts


    Villain calls (2)
    HERO raises (8) to 8
    Villain calls (6)
    ** Dealing Flop ** : [ 2s, Ad, Jd ]

    Villain checks.
    HERO bets (14.30)
    Villain calls (14.30)

    ** Dealing Turn ** : [ Th ]

    Villain checks.
    HERO bets (44)
    Villain calls (44)

    ** Dealing River ** : [ 6d ] POt is about 137. I have 127 left

    Villain checks.
    HERO ??

    stacks make it awkward but i expect him to donk it if he flushed so i bet 50-60 . he'll pay you off with any a or j by the looks of it. you'd be getting sick odds if he shoved but he's not raising with anything you beat

    I am not sure I get this, if we can assume that the opponent in this hand never bluff check raises which I think we can, then we need to be ahead > 50% of the time if called, if so why not just shove?

    yeah your right, contradicting myself.

    definately bet (possibly overbet) vs these players with 2 pair.. you won't always be right but you're missing out on huge value by not betting.


    I found myself against one of these players last night. He was calling rivers with Ace high, 3rd pair, you name it.

    He actually had a huge tank in front of him after doubling up and I was really hoping that he wouldn't lose it to someone else so I (unfairly) typed in the chat box "DONT CALL HE HAS A STRAIGHT" when another villain huuuugely overbet (10x the pot) an obvious straight on the river. Donk folded and the villain proceeded to (justifiably) type abuse at me in the chat box :D

    IMO i check the river the third diamond cant be a good card wit flop and turn call,remote possibility of KQ,the main question is what kind of hand does he call a shove with i would never consider this move if you value bet lets say 50and he shoves you surely cant be ahead.I feel the the check is the best move.
