If you don't bet high enough the fish bite back.

KNOWHEN2 · If you don't bet high enough the fish bite back.

Ok the pick tells it all.

I’am on about 4,400 in the sb and i call the bb 100, flop comes 77k.
i have kJ so i bet 200 and get some action from one of the lose players at the table and the chip leader from a coulple of lucky playes.
turn comes 4 so i bet again and get called, they must have ?? SMALL PP or there chasing the A, they have been lose and lucky, river is a 5, i push all in and get called, they have P 5s and hit trips.
I’am betting and they are just calling, yes i should have bet bigger, and pushed.
BUT i do think that 8 out of 10 times iam the winner.

Its just that in the tourney before this one i went out first hand to trip 5s.
I had Qs 10s flop is 10d 5s 2s, anyway he had p 5's and iam out.

So what did this remind me ??,,,, the single size bet, the blind size bet, call it what you will does not get it done; For info nor for removel.
By trhe river its to late you already drownd.....RIP.

yep no mini raise there are so many fishes in the lake so they will try to catch if its cheap to call and at poker/carbon they always seems to hit they even do this at cash tables so take a bigger bet and see whats happening

This is true... sometimes if the blinds are low I dont eve like doing a pot size bet.......

you know, sometimes with those fish it doesn't matter how much you bet, even all in I've seen low PP's call, & as always they hit by the river, if we play a small PP like that, IT NEVER EVER HITS !!!

That being said, I would have bet the pot on the turn if I were you, 1K, unless they are a total donk, they should then fold, if I was that player, I could easily have put you on AQ or AJ, or a flush draw, possibley a 7 or more likely a king, or a smaller PP, so I might still be ahead...so I think I would have called...

I kind of look at it this way, what hands do I think my opponent has, and can I beat some of those hands, if it's like 50-50 I think for small bets, I would have to definetly call...

Question, why bet the flop & turn, but then check the river ?
