Poker Strategy: Do We Go For A Thin Value Raise On The River?

  1. From what I hear this guy is one of the best call in players by far! I like his thought process

  2. id raise again on the turn because the nit would reraise the turn with the nuts most of the time imo.

  3. Either 3 Bet turn or at the river if you don't 3 bet the turn I think you have to bet the river if you get Raised big then you can reassess but I think you're losing value by not Betting

  4. Surely Villain would've raise folded himself on the river with j10 so IMO this is a clear raise fold on river for hero

  5. I think, both Hero and the main Villain played this hand well on the flop and turn, but the river really should have gone check-check. There are no hands worse than JT, that should even consider calling a river bet into a dry sidepot on this board after that turn action. But they could go for a bluff-raise, if the river bet is sized to leave enough room for a bet-fold.

    So not only should the player betting the river only get called, when he is beat. He also open an opportunity for the other guy to turn his hand into a bluff and blow him out of the main pot, which a small straight still has some chance of winning.

    Sure its cool, that Hero won the hand and got paid. But its also important to not get blinded by the results and understand, that it only worked, because the Villain played the river like a complete moron. So unless Hero had some really solid reads on Villain, this was a bad play, which just happened to work this one time.

  6. Some of the stuff BH was talking about this guy had no clue, not sure how in the world he is thinking about value betting in his position, by doing so it's pure gamble! I would have laughed if he got checked raised for all of his chips and one of the villain had the nuts and this guy didn't see it. A lot of fish sees a straight and a flush and can't seem to see that there might be a HIGHER straight or HIGHER flush on the board!

  7. Dam I've listened to a LOT these hands and so far only heard this caller Aaron once, would be cool to hear more of his hands.
