nl40 river...we have a set and horror board

edited November 2011 in The Poker Clinic
i dont really know much about villain.  he seemed to be playing fine and we hadnt tangled at all.  the table in general was very passive and most flops were multi way but rarely to showdown.

fold or call?

    Hey, its above my level but betting £1.20 in to a pot of £12 looks so much like a blocker bet to stop you betting bigger. By calling you are making his bet +ev if he is on a flush draw due to the pot size.

    Its a tough spot but i raise turn.

    EDIT - river is tough, real tough. Not sure what we beat after his river bet as it looks so much like a flush the way its played. Thing is, you have played it like a flush draw too on the turn, so i am not sure he could rep it as a bluff. urghh!

    IMO at this level it's usually to try and get a reraise from people who think it's a blocker, I would call river just to find out what that turn bet meant lol

    He starts hand fairly short so can't imagine him being brilliant, C/C flop looks drawy, minbet turn is weird seem like trying to buy cheapish river.

    River bet looks like value one to me and the flush has come in plus possible 4 having str8, can't see how any Kx's get to river as they would fold flop plus he'd surely C/C with them.

    I'd fold.
