Decisions on the river

by MiiWiin

Today we will take a closer look at the last street in Texas Hold'em poker - the river, namely. The decisions are the most expensive here, while all hands are definitely made; there are no more opportunities to improve your hand. It's either winning with the better hand (or possibly a bluff), or ceding the pot to the opposition.
