The most memorable hand of Friday night's session featured a perfect river bet. Unfortunately, I was the player who called the bet, not the player who made it. With a holding of Ac Jc, and a board of Jd Tc 3c 5d 4d, the one opponent who was still in the hand with me bet 6000 chips on the river, into a pot of 136,200. I was getting huge pot odds, so of course I called. My opponent turned over pocket kings, and I lost over three quarters of my stack in a New York minute. Luckily for me, I'd already made the final table, so I still ended up with a good profit.

Hey Neo,
ReplyDeleteThat river bet was actually terrible. He hardly gets any value with his good hands, and if he was bluffing, he is getting no folds. So either way he definitely should have bet bigger. Betting less than one-third pot is basically never the right play. Good luck.
Thanks,
Al
