How do I prevent this crap?

[1C5]

$11, not exactly the brightest players but anyway...this situation. Do you raise here such as I did preflop or just push all in? (PS, I called as I thought he was bluffing) /images/graemlins/grin.gif /images/graemlins/smirk.gif

That's a terrible pf raise. Check or push. I check.

[RobGW]

I would just push preflop if you think he will lay it down. Otherwise just check out the flop. I see a lot of players call a min raise even when its a good portion of their stack.

You avoid this by thinking before you press that check button pre flop.

If SB had an Ace or a PP he would raise/push you. He didn't. He wants to see the flop. You are ahead. Make him pay to see the flop, or give you the blinds. Push.

Yes, there is a small chance he has a monster, but since you raised it will not make any difference.

You don't make a crappy min raise from the BB after the SB completes. Not that he even had to realize this fact, but you know you gave him 3:1 pot odds to call. Name a hand that he could be holding that is a bigger dog than 3:1.

Weak raise, in that situation you are either folding or pushing.

Now I know not to make that mistake again. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

Allin preflop. You need to play with a lot more power in these sit and gos.

Sorry I always post before reading replies so it doesn't influence my thinking /images/graemlins/smile.gif I didn't realize you had already gotten the same advice 5 times.
