THE RIVER BLUFF - 2 INTERESTING 9 7 HANDS !!

Is it always the sweetest pot to win? !!!! My call is spewy pre but I was almost certain his tiny river bet had to be under pair to board that he thought would lose at showdown !!

Anyway real reason for below is so the Cardrunners subscribers can tell me how shit and lucky I am ;) morning Ben / Brennan !!!!!

Played about 5 cash sessions in row across Fri / Sat and things have been going decent - played really well with some great decisions and really feel i have started to get better value for made hands. A few AA v KK and AA v AK all in pre also help :)

Now comes the downswing as posted if Holmes blog sets precedent

I also had £5 lucky 15 on horses and when 1st leg Mull of Dubai won at 16s I had a very nice looking bet on my hands . Next one cruised to lead at 7s but lost, next one cack then last one got mega bumped when looking like winning at 4s so in end minimum return.

EDIT

Literally 5 mins after posting above the below hand comes up with 9 7 again. I love the river but it probably costs me a lot of cash in end !!!

A) Should I have raised riv?
B) If he shoves should i call
C) Should i be pleased i didnt go totally bust on hand !!

****ing RIVER !!!
