turn help

philliivey

ok, so what is the best thing to do on the turn when more outs open up, check or bet?

I know the flop bet could have been more but what is the best option for the turn? If bet what size of bet?

Opponent was loose-passive

compuease

Actually I like your line here Philli... Mediocre hand don't build it too much... Payoff card for you on river would have been 8s..

that was actually played well there philli...

nh.

88Fingers

seems fine imo too - you took control and kept it through the hand. turn as played is good.

philliivey

thanks guys

ya comp, the 8 spades would of been sweet, that river was a action killer with bringing the diamond flush and another 5, so played it safe on river

TuFull

good play... I would have value bet the river he was either folding or calling for no reason anyway as a loose passive

Looks good on all streets.
