Howdy,
I am having problems when I hit a top, but small, pair. Should I be betting out, check-raising, check-calling, check folding? I am almost always able to check-raise at this table. This is microlimit at planet poker
For example,
I hold K /images/graemlins/spade.gif8 /images/graemlins/heart.gif in the big blind. We see an unraised flop 7 handed. The flop comes 3 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif5 /images/graemlins/club.gif8 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif
Is this a situation where reverse implied odds make this hand unplayable.
Would where the bet came from change the play, player to left, right or accross the table from me.
For sake of discussion assume I can put the player who bets on a hand based on my knowledge of their past play, but that I have problems on putting the callers on a hand. Many will call one bet with any pair, or any draw, including one overcard, many would call with an overpair as well. Many people call the flop bet but fold on the turn.
Thanks,
Chucklhead
