boo- you check with outs cause you are fairly sure you aren't best and have little bluff equity- here you are best here a huge amount of the time, you're throwing value away checking and have mad outs the few times you are beat

That's what I was afraid of. I suck at poker.

LMFAO, "boo" was the first word that came to my mind as well when I saw the hand.

no way

I consider 98o a borderline raise on the button. I think from the CO is going to cost you money

The blinds in this hand were tight, I did not expect to take a flop. Still a dumb raise?

No hand would be a bad raise if you didnt expect to take a flop /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

your turn check looks like the purpose of raising flop was to give away a free card later...

doesnt make much sense and is not goot for many reasons.

I fold this pf. I bet the turn. I rarely do both on the same hand.

If you could post a hand where you actually do both I think it would clear up some questions I have about my game /images/graemlins/grin.gif
