Because my first post about river decisions was so popular ( ), here are some more... As usual, thoughts/comments and criticisms about my lines on each street are appreciated.

1.
Table was a bit tight so I felt reasonably comfortable raising AJs UTG... nobody has really challenged raises so far. Don't know if I'd do the same all the time, or even with Ajo.

SB doesn't seem to be a very strong player. Hasn't done much of note so far other than splash away a few chips (and reload). A bit loosish preflop but nothing really else of note.

UTG+1 is a bit of a tightwad/nit so I checked the flop for pot control reasons.

Obviously I'm raising the river, but how much?


PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)

Hero ($158.10)
UTG+1 ($61.50)
MP1 ($100)
MP2 ($63.45)
MP3 ($184.35)
CO ($29.65)
Button ($45.60)
SB ($97.50)
BB ($25.70)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with , .
Hero raises to $4, UTG+1 calls $4, 5 folds, SB calls $3.50, 1 fold.

Flop: ($13) , , (3 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, UTG+1 checks.

Turn: ($13) (3 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $8, UTG+1 folds, SB calls $8.

River: ($29) (2 players)
SB bets $14, Hero ....?

2.

I have an old note about UTG who I've seen before. This guy will limp/call marginal hands like KTo, QJs even OOP.

He is not particularly aggro postflop.

Is the river worth calling?

MP2 ($111.35)

Flop: ($8) , , (2 players)

Turn: ($28) (2 players)

River: ($28) (2 players)

Hand 1 I make it $57.

Hand 2 I'd bet out $7 and fold to any raise. There are plenty of hands you beat that will call a bet getting those odds.

Hand 3 is fine, A decent opp can push you off your hand there when checked to, because obviously youre betting a ten if youve got one.
My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

Do you call the river as played? This is a standard situation and I think it's very close.

Would you usually fire the turn here or just give up?
