Could you explain what you mean? I don't really understand it. I checked after the turn, because I wanted the other guy to bet at the pot after the river.

Is that from Yoda's Force Masters Series: Jedi's Guide to Beating EmpirePoker?

"Originally Posted by bonchkid

Is that from Zen and the Art of Poker??

Confuscious say:

Ok, this makes sense now, it seemed akward when I first read it.

You are saying raise to make it look like a steal, not many steal raise from such early position, and not many 5c/10c players pay attention.

Since no one raised on the flop, you weren't gonna get any action for more betting. A bet on the turn might've received a call. The guy who paid you off is one of the biggest morons ever, though.

He called with 6 high on the river. Did anyone else notice that? If you have any two cards under 6, he was beat... Unless he put you on deuce-four.

In turn not many 5c/10c players will call a raise with two aces out there unless they have one or a pp. I tried to maximize my earning on the hand and I didn't think that player would have gone for it. I get what you are saying about 'stealing', but he was very tight and I believe a bigger bet might have made hime fold. As crazy as it sounds I wanted that 50 cents.

Yeah. What Bonch said. Wait... What I said. I don't think that the opponent even looked at the river card. Oh wait... that was you that didn't look at the turn, Beav.

Just bustin' your balls, Beav.
