Head’s up on the River – Limit Hold’em

When it gets down to the river and you have one opponent across the table from you, you can be sure they have some kind of hand, unless they’re bluffing. This isn’t likely to happen in a hold’em game all the way to the river though. Look at the board and identify any draws or the best hand they could hold. Where do you stand in relation to the best possible hand? Take all this information into consideration and bet accordingly. You may be able to bluff successfully yourself if you missed your draw and a scare card hit on the river. You can bluff on the river in a favorable situation like the one just mentioned if you know you cannot win the pot by checking and the pot odds are profitable in relation to the odds against your opponent calling the bet. Whether you have a hand or not, how you decide to play will likely depend upon your position and how much money is in the pot already.

No matter what you do on the river, remember this: While it is a small error to call one last bet on the river with a losing hand; it is a huge mistake to fold the winning hand on the river and lose the entire pot.
