Vic3Roy   Finland. Jun 23 2006 10:15. Posts 3049 I'm wondering why didn't you? Turn bet is pretty ridiculous looking to me, as if you would have given up ;O "I've lost this, lets not waste but only 7,5$ to a 19$ pot and hope they fold !" ^_^; Bigaboo

chris   United States. Jun 23 2006 10:27. Posts 5503 I'm not criticizing, but I am curious, why no bet on river? You bet or called the bets the whole way through to get passive on river. I'm normally told how lousy of a player I am when I play a hand like that, even if I win. So please explain why the check? Cautious of a set or two pair? I wouldn't think the 7 would scare you that much. The Q 6 would probably call, since he did so with the 7.50 raise, etc. And if you do bet on river, what is reasonable sized bet? 5 minute showers are my 8 minute abs. - Neilly Last edit: 23/06/2006 10:28

Vic3Roy   Finland. Jun 23 2006 10:34. Posts 3049 River check with 2 callers is never awful, there are plenty of donks out there and they can often hit 2 pairs or even a set on the river (or turn & slowplay), coz they play unbelieveable horrible hands, just like Q6o here, if river was 6 and he checks, you can save your money that way, with 1 caller its a lot easier to bet on river.
