Boy do I hate my play here. I'm just beinging to perfect my limit HU play, I need some help.

1) I bet the flop here, correct?
2) Check the turn? Did my bet suck?
3) Its safe to assume Villain has a low A or a flush draw. Is this the right time for a bet to push out AA? Villain seems to be a calling station, not enough data on him yet to determine, its still the first orbit.

well this is actually a full handed table, so youll get better responses if you post it in the SmallStakes thread.

I prolly just check/fold the turn, if he checks behind and a blank comes on the river, id check/call

This forum is geared towards shorthanded tables.

1. I always bet any flop heads up after raising pre flop. I think it's a good policy.

2. Borderline. If he has a made hand you're beat, but that flop hits a lot of drawing hands. If you're ahead, you don't want to give up a decent sized pot.

3. Push out a pair of aces at 2/4? I doubt this works at 15/30.

Sorry guys, I thought Heads Up play is included in this forum, I didn't know that means full table play is excluded when it's heads up on the flop. Excuse the error /images/graemlins/blush.gif

For the record, villain has A2o... /images/graemlins/confused.gif

I think your line is fine here. Alot of it is player dependent, but heads up with a pair VS an ace i take that line alot. especially if my PP is higher.
