6/12 LHE. Stemy is the "poster LP" guy. He probably watches too much TV because he sees almost every flop, bets on nothing, and checks with a big hand. What caught me off guard is that he checked on the turn and i couldn't remember how he acted on the turn after whatever flop action (or lack thereof) that he had made.

My main innner conflicts:
A.) Should I bet this turn or not?
B.) If I check the turn and an Ace or 3 hit, what do I do if he bets? And if you say call this river bet after checking the turn, why? If he had me beat on the turn with a flush, 2 pair, or a low set, why call the river? If I have him beat on the turn with 3 clubs showing, why not bet? If I have him beat on the turn, why check? And what do I do on the river? What IS a good river card for me?
C.) Why should I not bet this turn? We're 6-handed. I have a pair of Aces and he didn't

Fill in this blank

You need to bet for value here, and then fold 'for value' if you get raised.

IF he is as LP as you say, He could be calling down Q9 for all you know. You hand is probably ahead, so bet like it.

Here's the rest of the hand. I didn't like it at all. A club hit the river and I was watching Law and Order and didn't notice. I should've put this in the River Rats forum. Pretty bad, I know.

I was gonna mention something about a redraw to the flush.. but I figured I would get yelled at.

Man, you both fucked up the river play. HE bets into a four flush with 2 pair, you RAISE with the 3 high flush, and he CALLS.

And i thought you could play.

This was on CnR. I've never made a deposit. They gave me $250 for a Hand of the Week article and another $200 to give bi-weekly feedback on the site. I tend to do some stupid things on there because it's like play money to me. I can only win there and me being stupid beefs the action which is basically what I get paid to do.

I honestly didn't notice the club on the river.

I should try the 4-color deck again. Did once and just couldn't handle purple cards.
