    Default The Check Raise .

    Notice the limp not the raise with the Aj :-p

    But anywas how do you all determine if you should call that raise of all in, when you perform it. Because it seems when i do check raise, i get all of their chips in the pot most of the time, but im fearing here 2 pair, or trips etc. Just a 50/50 risk situation?

    Seat 5: Deadly224 ($2,630 in chips)
    Seat 6: RIPJohnGotti [JS,AD] ($2,740 in chips)
    Seat 7: runt_girl ($1,734 in chips)
    Seat 9: xyzman ($1,788 in chips)
    Seat 10: squint2 ($6,108 in chips)
    ANTES/BLINDS
    RIPJohnGotti posts blind ($50), runt_girl posts blind ($100).

    PRE-FLOP
    xyzman calls $100, squint2 folds, Deadly224 folds, RIPJohnGotti calls $50, runt_girl checks.

    FLOP [board cards 2C,6C,AH ]
    RIPJohnGotti checks, runt_girl checks, xyzman bets $350, RIPJohnGotti bets $700, runt_girl folds, xyzman bets $1,338 and is all-in, RIPJohnGotti calls $988.

    TURN [board cards 2C,6C,AH,4D ]


    RIVER [board cards 2C,6C,AH,4D,QD ]


    SHOWDOWN
    xyzman shows [ 3C,6H ]
    RIPJohnGotti shows [ JS,AD ]
    RIPJohnGotti wins $3,676.


    Now what im seeing is the check raise, even though very good is a more dangerous play then the standard continuation/value bet because you don't know what your really up against. Yes this guy was a chump but still.

    Still looking for my royal flush.

    Never read any stickies or announcements
    lol are u really considering folding for 1000 more into what will be close to a 4000 chip pot? completing preflop seems pretty standard, and on the flop I'm just trying to get all my money in...
