edit : woo i didnt see turn check, well that spot sucks. maybe river is a fold then
How can you guys say the river is a call "as played" ?
"as played" is stupid, that's the whole problem. Doesn't matter if we fold the best hand preflop or OTF sometimes because that "mistake", if true, will be a SMALL mistake. It doesn't matter to the bottom-line. On the other hand, calling the entire stack for 1K is a HUGE mistake that impacts the bottom-line
I say, the "as played" pre-river is a huge mistake and that mistake compounds all other mistakes into a huge one by the river. Why not "wake-up" from the bad dream and salvage what's left? - Why call the last $550 because you screw-up the first $700?
OK, ... whatever ..., Never feel obligated like you have to call the turn or river because you called the flop. Maybe your flop or turn call was justified. Maybe it was optimistic. Whatever it was, the river is a new decision unrelated with mistakes you made on previous streets. You’re better off folding if your opponent makes a big bet and you can’t beat the hand he’s representing. You’re never committed to call a bet on the end if that bet is still a significant percentage of the pot like in this situation for half pot.
