Why in gods name do you want to raise that river card? I guess you can beat a bluff but you pussied out on calling the bluff. Best best best case he has a set and is overplaying it. I like the comment that you call the 4.50 and say "tyvm for being a retard". <brSirFWALGManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01310209706844541719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9142521684451555818.post-82821473076292598392010-07-22T11:04:38.768-04:002010-07-22T11:04:38.768-04:00You are gonna get shown a flush like 95% of the ti...You are gonna get shown a flush like 95% of the time, even vs a fish, especially given that he donked river once the flush hits<br /><br />In fact I don't even raise river since we have such an obvious straight and he probs won't pay off with worse. If we somehow had 74 I probably raise river and fold to a shove.HappyPixelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13584284196449782836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9142521684451555818.post-8309297300440536252010-07-22T11:00:58.212-04:002010-07-22T11:00:58.212-04:00@Anonymous - I think this is a consistent problem ...@Anonymous - I think this is a consistent problem for me in the past few hand histories: I raise the river where only better hands can make a call / raise against me.<br /><br />Here's my thought process (and probably wishful thinking on my part): It is "somewhat" unlikely for me to show up with a 4 in this spot - given that I raised PF from MP.

He also would seldom bet this river without a hand.
