Just curious how to play small pocket pairs.
Now, the way I play them is I'll call a small raise with them. If i trip up, come over top of the guy betting/raising.
If they do not hit then it is very easy to get away from them post flop.
Now, my question is, is this a good way to play them?
Should i be folding them more pre-flop because they are weak?
Just curious because tonight on a party 25 table a guy raised to 2 or 3 bucks and I called with pocket 4's.
I tripped up on the flop and ended up taking alot from him when he went all in after the flop (one other guy called as well and i got a nice triple up).
the guy then spent time berating me because i beat his pocket kings and called with sucha stupid hand.
any advice, criticizm, etc appreciated.
