A hand

[Jason Strasser]

We need something to talk about that relates to poker strategy, other then some of the recent extra-curricular activities that have been going on recently.

Im dealt 88 in LP. 200 SNG. 2 people limp up front, I limp behind. Blinds are 15/30, assume everyone has around 1k chips.

Flop 763r. Checked to me, I bet pot. EP limper calls.

I plan to bet the turn and check the river unless I improve from one pair. Folding to a raise on the turn. If he bets the river I probably call.

i bet the turn if EP checks. if the card doesn't give me a straight draw and am c/raised, i'll fold to a turn raise

unless a card falls that the EP limper conceivably has comes on the river and they bet BIG, i'll be calling the river if they bet, and checking behind if they don't bet. as i am a non river betting wimp.

Comments always welcome,
