This is a hand that I think I am playing very poorly when the flop misses me. My instinct tells me to be aggressive, but at what point is aggression equal to stupidity.
Here is an example:
Party 1/2 The usual cast of dumdums and nitwits. (9 handed)
Hero is UTG w/ A /images/graemlins/heart.gifK /images/graemlins/club.gif
Hero raises, 3 nimrods, plus the BB call.
Flop (10.5 SB) (5 players) J /images/graemlins/club.gif6 /images/graemlins/heart.gif2 /images/graemlins/spade.gif
BB checks, Hero bets, 2 nimrods call, BB and 1 nimrod fold.
Turn (8 BB)(3 players) 9 /images/graemlins/heart.gif
Hero ????? check/fold?
I'm at a loss. Should I try to c/r the flop? That seems absurd cuz I was the raiser. Do I check/fold the flop? That also seems absurd as I have odds to catch an overcard.
Any input would be appreciated.
