Been lurking for a while. First started post. I'd love to hear how most 2plus2 posters feel about this one.
This is particular to when you are BB or SB. You've got two random low cards. But either you can check as BB or are getting amazing pot odds to call SB, so you see the flop and youve hit bottom two pair.
For this example, let's say 4-7 is the hand du juor. The flop comes A (or K) -4-7. You are first to act normally (or second behind a check), what is the optimal play here?
I've been making a large bet (2/3 to 3/4 pot size), figuring I can end the hand right there since I didn't really want in the hand to begin and rather win the small pot then lose a bigger one on the river.
Am I wrong? Please flame. I need to learn.
