Question
In a six-max game online, it’s folded to the button, who raises to $8. You three-bet to $28 and he calls. The flop comes J
A
4
. You bet $45; he calls again. The turn comes 2
.
How much (if any) should you bet?
Correct Answer: $100
If you bet $50 the pot won’t be big enough to bet all of your chips. Betting $100 puts the pot to $347 with his call, and you’ll only have $330 left to bet on the river, slightly less than pot – thereby avoiding an overbet. Thus the $100 raise sets up your river shove the best.
