OK this is my third match against this opponent. He'd limp raised me countless times when he had button, most of the time a click raise, anyways, opinions here.

    Hey mate, can't see u did much wrong. No obvious flush or staight draw on the flop. Guess u checked to check raise. You have made it 3/4 pot on the turn, he calls for an inside str8 draw when he hasn't got the odds. Since there is no flush draw u have to suspect he has 2 pair or a set. Not much you can do if someone is going to play a K6 off and call off chips to hit a 4 outer.

    We can't b/f with stack sizes, just shove the river yourself imo.

    If he's calling for a gutshot on the turn you really should be betting the flop imo... no need to 'trap' a calling station just bet each street.

    Thanks BF, this was purley the reason i posted this hand. My Turn play commited me to the river i felt, but i was happy with it. The flop i wasnt so sure.

    I had JJ watching and also asked why, i just didnt feel at this point i could get paid.

    not a fan tbh

    pre fine, c bet a) looks like could be bluff b) also build the pot or take it down, although not alot of draws out there still would bet at least same as pre flop if not more

    turn bet fine, river check/call ok problem is the flop here as if you bet would have had more in pot also may not have customer

    UL though

    Stop posting bad beats disguised as strategy questions!
