Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.1/$0.25 No-Limit Hold'em (6 handed)

Known players:
[tg]BU$26.10:///////;SB$31.14:///////;BB$39.57:///////;MP2$29.29:///////;MP3 (Hero)$61.00:///////;CO$55.56:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with K:s, K:d.
MP2 raises to $1.00, Hero raises to $2.50, 4 folds, MP2 calls $1.50.

Flop: ($5.35) T:h, 7:s, 6:s (2 players)
MP2 checks, Hero bets $3.50, MP2 calls $3.50.

Turn: ($12.35) Q:h (2 players)
MP2 checks, Hero bets $7.82, MP2 calls $7.82.

River: ($27.99) A:d (2 players)
MP2 bets $13.30, Hero folds, MP2 gets uncalled bet back.

Final Pot: $27.99.

I'm getting such great odds but I don't think a fish is bluffing here often enough? The board is so connected and the ace on the river made me wonder if there are enough bluffs I beat...

Hi Anomic,
I came across this from the mighty mbml in the Highlight Thread. Perhaps you'd like to take a look?
It's not exactly the same obviously but he makes a strong case for generally drawy boards, which leads me think we might need to take a more passive approach on the turn here to?
I think the fold isn't too tough on the river as played since chk/c, chk/c, donk is usually strong from a recreational player unless the donk is very small, as we know.
Obviously this is my opinion only and I am not mbml by a long way! :f_ugly:

I wish you well,

Mal.

Hi gadget51,

In mbml thread, the board is more connected and Villain is a reg. Here Villain is a fish. Against a fish, I believe there is still a lot of value on the turn.

Hi Anomic,

I would have also fold on the river, I think we are way too often behind.
