[Closed] 0.5/1 from Russia with love :)

I think it's played fine from a Hero point of view, maybe you can fold turn already but that seems weak.

As a BB I would definitely c/r against almost every opponent unless you know he almost never contibets. After that it's just bet and bet.

isn't it possible that bb thinks he can bluff you out of the hand? so maybe a call on the river is possible against other A high hands.

it doesn't make sence to me the way bb played it. so if its unknown i would calldown to see this for the next time.

as bb i would c/r for sure. even if there is a freecard its not so bad because there aren't any draws out there.

With AK: Fold the turn. He bets again into 2 which shows much strength.

As BB with trips: Check/raise the flop as you always do. I see no reason to fear a freecard from the preflop aggressor on a dry board where he is very likely still best against 2.

Thnx a lot.

One more question, Is Free Card Raise possible from Hero with AK?

I wouldn't do it because he will 3-bet a J (we can't fold directly) and if he has a 2 he might check the turn anyway because the turncard is always bad for him. Additionally UTG+1 could awaik and 3-bets us and again we have to call only to fold nearly alway on the turn.

Another problem is that we often have to call the river if we take the freecard because he might bluff now but more often he has at least a pair.

I hope this makes sense.

ok Thnx a lot, ciRith
