Message: [QUOTE="fundiver199, post: 5935494, member: 397965"] [COLOR=#595F68]Preflop[/COLOR] [COLOR=#595F68]I also like the large isolation size.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#595F68]Flop[/COLOR] [COLOR=#595F68]I also think, your C-bet is to large. The thing about a paired board like this is, very few hands connect with it, and some of those, that did, now beat you. Your hand also dont need any protection. Its a way ahead way behind spot. Either you have 2 outs against someone, who flopped trips or a boat, or they are drawing very thin against you. A gutshot has 4 outs. 8X has 2 outs, since you already have two pair. All the hands, that missed, need some kind of runner-runner to crack your aces. [/COLOR][COLOR=#595F68]I can even see an argument for checking here as a trap to have some very strong hands in your check-back range. Allow someone to bluff the turn or catch up by turning top pair or some kind of draw. Betting is also ok, but I would want to go small here like 1/3 pot.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#595F68]Turn[/COLOR] [COLOR=#595F68]I dont quite understand the rationale of betting very big on the flop and then checking turn. Even with the big flop bet, I would still put out a turn bet trying to get called by 8X, the rare TX and pocket pairs. I would still go on the smaller side like half pot though.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#595F68]River[/COLOR] [COLOR=#595F68]On any other card than a 4 or A, I would just call, when he bets full pot. However when another 4 hits the board, its less likely, he has one, because now there is only one left. On the other hand all his TX, 8X and pocket pairs improved to a full house, and at 2NL its certainly likely, he overvalue that kind of hand, because he fail to understand the relative strengt of it. So on this particular card I would also move all in for value. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#595F68]Results[/COLOR] [COLOR=#595F68]This time he had the goods, and you ended up value owning yourself. But this is just part of poker. Its not something, we can or should even try to avoid. The goal when betting for value on the river is to be good more than 50% of the time when called, and in this situation I think, you easily are. [/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
