Etiquette?????

[Robbie Robb]

Hehe. Perhaps it should be pointed out at this junction that Oceanwives is also known as Mrs. Invigilator...

The bet definitely does not have any +EV in general. Deep in my home game means deep into a case of Blue Light too, so that's part of the explaination.

There really isn't a hand that beats me that I am going to drive out by betting. HOEWEVER, there are so few hands that I beat that would call. The only reason she called is she knows I try to bluff her more than I do the average person.

Final clarification point... when I bet the 7, am I making the statement "I hit the 7" or is it a more general statement of a I have part of the flop?

lol invig is sleeping on the couch.

It is true that there can't be to many hands that would fold for a min bet.
Only scenario I could come up with is 9x, and the all in guy has 88.
You fold out the 9x and lose to the 88.
I don't know, I would check it down.

def. I am gonna blame the beer on this one.

Um ARE YOU FUCKIN SERIOUS?

It's poker, and you are betting your hand for value if you feel you will be called by less, or as a bluff if u think opponent is dumb enough to fold a hand worse than yours.

Where in the ethics rules is it not ok to WIN or lightly bet a hand when someone else is all in?

If the third player got very very pissed at me I'd laugh in their face and tell them to deal with it.... if they couldn't Id tell them maybe they should play go fish

Is it bad etiquette to bluff this person also? Or how about even further, bet any hand at all?

See first line again

[Robbr25]

I am not saying it is bad etiquette I am saying at that point with that weak of a hand it is nit picky.

In that case I would be in the dog house for a while cause I don't know when to stfu.
