This is not a flush bet! I have the straight and I'm not going anywhere! I raise you." Obviously you don't say it so obviously, but hollywood it a bit and you may coax a call.The Poker Meisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18289059101454598371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-710744658635039377.post-69709600714814072712013-07-26T19:31:51.415-06:002013-07-26T19:31:51.415-06:003rd hand - Not seeing the player, I think $100 on ...3rd hand - Not seeing the player, I think $100 on the turn is a fine bet. In fact, I would imagine for a lot of players, they're folding a $100 turn bet - that's a bet that means business. I think you got good value for AA.<br /><br />Last hand: Yes - you need to raise the turn. Two reasons:<br /><br />1. You are "free rolling" so to speak to the spade draw, assuming he doesn't have the 46ss which is impossible (i.e. you have the 4s).<br />2. By not raising the turn, you have virtually no chance of getting stacks in the middle.<br />Bonus 3. It does mask the flush but it also gets more money in, in the event that the spade hits - makes it a lot harder for him to fold since he has so much more committed.The Poker Meisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18289059101454598371noreply@blogger.com
