Just wondering how you all would play this in a loose/passive online 3-6 game:
You raise three or four limpers w/ a hand like this and get this flop:
AK with a flop of 6 8 10
JJ or QQ with a flop of A 7 4
Let's say you are the last to act in both situations.
And let's say someone bets into you on the flop.
I will usually raise in these situations, especially if there is only one bettor and everyone in between me and the original bettor has folded. And then bet again on the turn with the intention of checking on the river if I don't improve. Unless it is heads up at the end and I may bet again on the river.
I just hate calling when someone bets into me with hands like these. I like playing it strong if I feel I may be ahead anyway.
Is it better to just call on the flop and muck on the turn if there are more than one callers in between the bettor and me? What about when I raise the original bettor and get cold callers behind? Should I take this as I am beat without improvement and just check the turn and muck on the river without improvement?
I also would like to know about how to play it when you miss but noone bets into you. But that may have to be another thread.
Any comments would be appreciated.
