Question
Aggressive $10/$20 six-max game online, Folded to you in cut-off. You make it $70 to go. Big blind calls. Flop is 9
7
A
. BB bets $100; you raise to $350 as semi-bluff and sort of extended c-bet. BB calls. Turn 8
. BB checks; you check behind. River A
. BB bets $500.
What should you do?
Correct Answer: Raise all-in
The turn check most likely confused your opponent. You have a straight but the board is paired. It is unlikely that your opponent has a full house and if he does, so be it. Your hand is difficult to put you on, so you’ll likely get paid by any ace. Shove for value.
