I am just starting off playing poker. Last 2 tourneys have ended early with kings.
In the first hand I bet the flop because I had an overpair and I did not want to give flush/strait draws the right ods to hang around. On the turn another club comes, I check he bets a little. I think he could have a flush right now. But the odds are too good. Then I make flush King High, dont know why I bet like that, the only leverage I have is all in . If he has Ac I am screwed. But he could have TcJc,
In the second hand should I have just called his first reraise and seen if an Ace came on the flop. Bet out either way and then if he calls play cautiously.
