| Amusing. Do people think that because they've already put $5 in the pot that their hands are already pretty good? |

I couldn't have played that hand any worse and still won. But, in my defense, MP has a 25 % PFR with a 35 VPIP and the CO is the table calling station. Either way, both the preflop and flop plays were bad, but still fun. |

I dont see anything horrible about your opp's play. They only thing I see is he may find a fold on the turn raise because of your PFR...nice hand |

This would be a good time to raise the turn if SB has a fairly wide stealing range and isn't remarkably passive. I'd love to take the pot down on the turn. |

Not sure if I like the turn c/r here based on his flop raise. On this board, what is he raising the flop w/? It looks like you probably got A high or a small PP to fold here, however, I don't know if this play is going to get our opponent to fold often enough to do it frequently. Also, if your oppenent 3bets, what's your play? |

I'd count at least 15 outs, so his chances of drawing out coupled with folding equity make it a good play. If you consider only the bluff component of this semi-bluff, he's risking about 2/3 of a bet to win 6.5, so he needs a fold only about 9% of the time to make it +EV.
If your opponent three-bets, call and suck out. |

Its not a bluff. Its a semi-bluff and I very well could have the best hand. If he three bets here then he's got a ten but a check/raise turn symbolizes strength. He most likely has a Q or less, so my King is also good here. Since this was both an open ended straight and a flush draw, this play should work. |

If he calls your c/r, do you bet your K high river? Do you bet a J? Do you bet a K? Our c/r makes for an uncomfortable river situation.
I also wouldn't underestimate a Q 3-betting here - which is a hand we would certainly like to see a river card against. |

Is calling a bet in a 12 bet pot with only a gutshot draw a bad idea?
Just because something doesn't work the majority of the time doesn't mean it's a bad play.
Look at it this way: you're not folding the turn, so you're putting in one bet here no matter what. What's bad about investing a little bit more in hopes of inducing a fold, especially when you'll get that bet back 1/3 of the time after you make your draw?
In my experience, you're much more likely to get a fold with a check/raise than by leading the turn. |

Yes, and, Yes. Although I'm seeing both showdowns here, but just check/calling will never induce a fold. |

Not at all. But your statement fails to acknowledge that you've already put in 2 bets (by c/ring) with, very likely, the 2nd best hand. Not to mention, we are heads up. If our opponent calls, we are getting 1-1 on our money. As opposed to a 3 way pot where we can get 2-1 from callers.
| koolmoe wrote: | | Just because something doesn't work the majority of the time doesn't mean it's a bad play. |
Can you explain this? If c/r only works here less than 50% of the time, how is that "not a bad play"?

Based on your first sentence, your opponent shouldn't be folding any reasonable hand either since the pot will lay him proper odds. |

|
A c/r costs you 2 big bets to win a pot considerably larger than that. Hence, you can fail more than 50% and be profitable. Then, throw in the chance of out-drawing them on the river or even having the best hand... |

The fact that it's two bets only changes the pot odds calculation, which I have fully considered in my analysis. The fact that my hand is likely second best is precisely what makes this a semibluff. I'm not putting in two bets with the idea that I'm ahead, though it is remotely possible.
| Room wrote: | | Not to mention, we are heads up. If our opponent calls, we are getting 1-1 on our money. As opposed to a 3 way pot where we can get 2-1 from callers. |
Tell me this: what am I getting on my money if my opponent folds? I'm not looking for a call, so what I am getting on my money if I am called is irrelevant, except insomuch as it reduces the cost of my semibluff.
Bottom line, there are lots of hands I want folding here, and many of them will if I check/raise. If he calls or three-bets, I still have outs to win the pot.

This question makes me wonder if you understand the concept of bluffing at all. Even a stone cold check-raise bluff only has to work less than 25% of the time to be successful (i.e., +EV).
I have already mentioned that the bluff component of the check raise is equivalent to about 2/3 of a bet, and you stand to win 6.5 bets if it works. As a result, you only need a fold about 9% of the time. It doesn't have to work very often to be profitable.

In my experience, you're much more likely to get a fold with a check/raise than by leading the turn. |
Based on your first sentence, your opponent shouldn't be folding any reasonable hand either since the pot will lay him proper odds. |
That's just wrong. Your check/raise tells him that he has to call two more bets to win the pot since he'll expect a river bet. That's two bets to win 8.5 bets, so a lot of mediocre hands will have incentive to fold. Ace high, KJ, JJ, or pocket pairs 66-99 will have a hard time calling the check/raise. Heck, KQ, QJ, might even fold based on the T, which would be huge. You have to consider the fact that your opponent will give you credit for a stronger hand if you check raise. |
