    Default $4 180 BvB Line Check

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed) Poker Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

    MP2 (t1286)
    MP3 (t614)
    CO (t525)
    Button (t2400)
    SB (t3368)
    Hero (t1510)

    UTG (t2090)
    UTG+1 (t1680)
    MP1 (t1157)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with , .
    7 folds, SB completes, Hero raises to t90, SB calls t60.

    Flop: (t180) , , (2 players)
    SB bets t30, Hero calls t30.

    Turn: (t240) (2 players)
    SB bets t30, Hero raises to t120, SB calls t90.

    River: (t480) (2 players)
    SB bets t180, Hero calls t180.

    Final Pot: t840

    I did mean to raise the flop but fcked it up. Although having said that it is the driest board in the world so calling isn't horrible.

    No reads on villain; am I right that raising the river here would be a massive spew and I fold all worse?

    PS - You dicks, I just misclicked and stacked off with A-high whilst typing this thread.

    The turn raise size is no good, he gets like 4:1. If he has a weaker king, he's certainly calling a bigger sized raise. On the river, raising looks spewy since you've already shown strength. I would expect him to fold K9 there.

    The flop call is essentially a check behind, =slowplay TPGK, not bad on a dry board in a BvB situation imo.

    The reason I raised so small on the turn is that I find a minbet from someone who is obviously a donk, when raised, is either the nuts (which shoves) or air (which folds). A small raise folds out the bluffs and you pick up the pot (often with nothing yourself) or can escape easily if he 3-bets.

    if i'm raising anywhere it's flop, I think calling down the gaybets is fine
