I'm calling down river too.TiocfaidhArLahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16866495669162420676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8917470490628506852.post-71333894457952088092008-12-10T17:02:00.000-08:002008-12-10T17:02:00.000-08:00I feel your pain, I've been there a lot in the las...I feel your pain, I've been there a lot in the last month.<BR/><BR/>On the JT hand, I am probably just checking behind and calling a river bet. QQ looks quite likely, but I can't see him folding it. On the other hand I can't see him calling a bet with any hand that you beat except maybe TT. Against a rational player I might bet/fold the turn, but against a maniac I'll value check and hope for a bluff on the river from a worse hand.The blindmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02677139641680516700noreply@blogger.com
