ub, 50/100... 6-handed

im only about 20 or so hands into the game and already in for around 900+ when my set of q's loose to a gut draw on the river! besides this the game seems quite passive, with two very good ub limit players on the table.

im dealt 9d 10d on the button and raise, sb reraises and bb 3-bets, i call and action is capped.

flop: 7d 8s 4d

sb starts the betting and action is capped on the flop. im happy to cap the flop with such a big drawing hand

turn: ah

question..... do you cap the turn or slow down?

They're both obviously in love with their hands.

Why would you want to cap the turn?

Renton will become famous soon enough
Can you make up the loss of calling two bets cold preflop with a drawing hand like T9 in position?


I am actually asking because I do not know. (Limit <>< )

How many more bets do you expect to get in if you hit on later streets?

i have both blinds on over pairs and im sure they know im drawing so i dont make no more then 2...

thats why i asked the question, is there reasoning to raise turn to maximise pot .. is it worth it for say 2 more bets when im still drawing to 10 high?

elipsesjeff is an unknown quantity at this point
As soon as the turn comes you've got to slow down, you are now behind in this hand. You obviously cant fold and you did a great job building the pot on the flop. The only real reason to bet or raise this turn is for folding equity and I doubt you have hardly any right now.

So, no cap and good luck on the river.

~hey~

exactly my thinking, the hands shown where somewhat a "required taste"

the river is: 6c - giving me the nuts

action is check,check and i bet making 2 more bets... but the hands are
