I am very new to short-handed poker (less than 2K hands) and I have a few questions about a particular hand that I played at Interpoker 1/2.
Pre-Flop: I have Js Ts in the cutoff. Everyone folds to me. I raise and am called by the button (no info before this hand).
Flop: Kh 9d 9c I bet and the button calls. My first question is do you always bet out after raising pre-flop? I would like to see an example of a hand where you wouldn't.
Turn: 8s I bet again and the button calls. Was this a poor bet? My thinking was I'm going to call a bet with an open-ended straight draw, so why not bet out again.
River: 7d I bet, am called and my straight wins. Button shows Kc Jd. My next question is should I turn my chat feature off so I don't have to listen to endless bitching about what a moron I am?
If I was in his shoes, I would have folded pre-flop to a raise with Kc Jd. If I had played it, I would of raised on the flop (forcing me to fold my gutshot draw). Am I a moron?
Please help.
