I don’t think we’re always folding if they lead. Would be very size dependant.

That’s why I think checking turn makes River easy to play, they’ll be very face up when they are acting first

If we’re always folding to a bet on the river and that’s correct, it means villains river betting range is super nutted, which means they’re checking to us too often with a range of junk and marginal hands we beat.

If they’re virtually never bluffing river, they’re certainly never check raise bluffing river, so you get to bet for thin value , and on top of that all kinds of marginal junk in our turn check back range gets to win too often when river goes check check.

Easy game.

This is a check back to bluff catch non heart rivers.

This is tough & I probably fold. Games just getting started, no need to gamble. I just see so few bluffs on the river.


4 way pot on the flop: just fold river.


I go bigger on the fop and I follow through on the turn. On river, we are probably chopping at best -- fold is fine.


We need to be right only 25% of the time to a river b50. A King on A656K might think they chop with all other Kings & throw a bet out now. Ofc, V has flushes, 6x, and other Ax H now chops with, but needing only 25%, I'm calling.

What Omaha said, too.


Easy call vs ~1/2 pot.


River is a call. Turn is a super standard check. Flop sizing is fine.
