Oly   United Kingdom. Jan 13 2010 03:51. Posts 3585 no, this is good. There is no logic in c/c river, it is the worst of all possible options - the way the hand played he can't really have bluffing range that won't have a pair to check behind with. Researchers used brain scans to show that when straight men looked at pictures of women in bikinis, areas of the brain that normally light up in anticipation of using tools, like spanners and screwdrivers, were activated.

4Kingell   United Kingdom. Jan 13 2010 03:55. Posts 1453 Bet more on the flop and turn. I think the river bet is fine - so many times he will check back with worse Q, random J and you lose value. If you c/c you lose the same or more if he is ahead (he will rarely bet worse), whereas you lose value so often when he checks back.
