Would you call on the river?

Hi,

This one puzzled me a lot (and cost me a lot too). Did I do something wrong ?

    bet more on turn, you let him in cheap, bet more river

    Fold river to shove as played

    you need to bet bigger, some of ur hands have been lost by them hitting flush as ur letting them get it too cheap. a hand like ace king shud be at least 20p pre.

    personally i fink u knew he had a flush(as u bet more on turn but less on river :s)
    should of folded.

    Raise to about 35p pre flop.

    Raise to 80p on flop.

    Turn bet £1.40

    River shove.

    Hi,

    If I raise to 35p preflop, am I not going to simply win the blinds every time ?

    Regards,

    Nope instead you will get more calls from awful limp calling stations and then the pot will be bigger for when you hit your Ace/King, that is however if you're on a table that allows you to flop top pair some don't allow you to so best to check first.

    Raise more pre flop.

    Bet minimum 3/4 pot on flop.

    Bet minimum 3/4 pot on turn.

    If you do this, you can shove river.

    As played its a pretty standard fold at 4nl.

    Dont worry about the result, just play your end correct and over time you will be ok.

    whenever you think your ahead at this level i think the best thing to do is pot bet flop, turn and river minimal, you might lose the odd cutomer but you will make this up by beating the fishies
