Message: [QUOTE="Aballinamion, post: 6688787, member: 289533"] Preflop calling was okay. On the flop we shouldn’t be raising unless, of course, we also raise it having our flushes, nutted or not, and raising with our two pair, KQ, K4s, Q4s. Are we raising flop expecting to get calls from what losing hands and draws? The point of raising a monotone board is that if villain already has the flush we are almost drawing dead. And if villain is awaiting for another card to complete its flush, we are making the pot grow for it and committing ourselves. Besides, what kinda of bluffs do we have, in this same texture that would be raising the flop? Let’s not forget villain still holds more combos of KK and QQ than us, as you stated it is a decent TAG, so my analysis will rest upon this consideration. Point: why do you think QQ and KK are raising for sure? If villain has top and second set it is proven that it doesn’t own any combos of hearts, so why so doing? I see this mistake quite often, players turning strong values hand into bluffs, or betting or raising for value in spots they don’t have much or any bluffs, as we did it OTF. River completes another hearts and now I continue to ask for both hero and villain what is the point of raising flop having no hearts??? What if villain shoves right now? Are we folding? Are we praying? Are we calling knowing that 99% of times villain has a flush as we are barely fighting for a couple of outs? Luck to us villain checks and we don’t see any point of betting OTT for in this scenario all of best hands will call or jam over us and the losing hands will fold. River is fantastic for most likely give us the nuts. We should raise here a sizing that we thing villain will call. We could’ve raised or jammed but villain would’ve called? Yeah, there are one combo of a straight flush but we shouldn’t worry about it, if villain has us, good for it! We are never folding a quads here. Would you have done it using the same sizing with a bluff on this river? [/QUOTE]
