Whatever the hell you feel like doing on that one.
Pardon me, but I think you'll find that's a shovel. See you next Tuesday!

Oh and Pete, the reason I mentioned the context is for exactly what you said - it shows you are more of a tournament oriented player than cash game player.

I'd definitely agree with that.

In the second scenario, I'd obviously be c-betting, but not massively. Big redraws with my hand, and i want them coming along for the ride.

Probably bet another $7 - $9.

If you're feeling brave, go ahead and flat call but I wouldn't given that example on that table (some of us did actually manage to read that bit the first time Scott :P )


i agree here. what happens if your ace comes, and your opponent shoves all in?

10J is in the range of calling hands.

Answer:

Check. This board again is fairly wet. There are quite a few draws out there as well as some made hands. With two players you have very little chance of picking this up with a c-bet. When boards hit your opponents’ calling range hard you should be more inclined to check through rather than c-betting. So check through here and hope to improve on the turn.

Continuation bet (80%) Check (20%)
We've how about links I would like to know I walk the line scrunches line at how the client Lawrence etc. etc.

ooo that's interesting.

I was originally going to suggest check from a 'they'll have no idea what I'm holding" point of view but then added the thought that you could make a small bet and string them along a bit hoping for one of your many draws to land.

So I ended up with 'whatever you feel like'.

Hmm, interesting.

With both checking to you (and we assume they are drawing) I wouldn't mind putting pressure on them to chase their draws.
