I think it's fine untill the turn. We should definitelly not raise. I believe that the "standard" play here against an unknown would be to fold the turn. The reason is that if they bluff check/raise flops, they usually don't continue bluffing turns at these limits.

I think that fold turn would be OK. Even his big sizing looks more as value hand which he want to protect than a draw. Raise is really bad here imo

Thanks guys. Yeah, I was really annoyed at myself for that raise too. I swear, it's all because of my partner who asks to help her on play money tables ... those things are brutal! It just blew all the strategy out of my head clean. :f_biggrin: Oh god save me from looking at a play money table ever again.

Play money is like there are always at least 2 people at the table who go all-in with every single hand, literally, time after time. Then, if somehow postflop happens for some weird reason, there will be at least one guy in the pot who will be betting or calling down his whole stacks with something like 82o on a KJT board, every time. After looking at that for 20 hands I started suggesting my partner to stack preflop with KJ and postflop with any decent second pair.

I think it's like the recommendation for big tennis players not to play table tennis, because that might affect their proper swing. But worse, much worse.

Oh, and everybody was sitting there with 200BB+, and a normal open raise was about 50BB, after which somebody would raise to 60BB, and then reraise to 70BB, and then to 80BB, and to 90BB, and the whole thing will go around the table like that again and again.

I will have nightmares for a week now. :f_mad:

PS: do bears contain alcohol? In Russia, I guess.
