View Full Version : Why don't I have a good(and certainly better) line?

Online 30/60

UTG limps(ok, but a little loose, 30%), UTG+1 limps(no read, but seems reasonable), a bad player calls on the button and a retard completes the SB(50% and any pair to the river on any board+passiveness). I check in the BB with 77.

Flop is K75, no suits. I checked and UTG bet and UTG+1 raises. I am sure that UTG has a king, and probably UTG+1. Whats the best line?



I cold called two. Turn is a ten. Should I bet here, to try to tie UTG to the pot, and to be sure it gets bet? Go for the checkraise?

Cold call the flop, bet the turn. I think doing what you did on the flop is suspicious enough, checkraising the turn will definitely lose the guy in the middle. Lead the turn and hope UTG +1 raises again.

I have no trouble getting action by simply betting out on this flop. Otherwise, I would just check/3-bet and go from there.

if u check the flop u should definetely reraise when its back to you.

Besides I think betting out on the flop is the best line more often than not.

personally, i'd lead the flop here. The chances are too good that someone has a king and will give you action. This also makes it less obvious for calling a raise and sets up a turn check-raise much better.

I didn't want to lead the flop and have on of the EP players raise, thereby knocking out the SB or button who would peel one with A6, QJ, etc. The only thing I didnt like about the 3 bet is that it may knock out UTG, which is sad, because he is almost drawing dead too.
