This question has to do wiht pot odds, and dealing with idiots at micro-limit.
I had A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif A /images/graemlins/club.gif in middle position. UTG bets, I raise, two players cold call, UTG reraises, I cap, other two call. On the flop there are 16SB in the pot plus the blinds.
Flop A/images/graemlins/heart.gif 5 /images/graemlins/spade.gif 2 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif
UTG checks, I bet, the guy behind me raises, UTG folds, the betting is then capped/called. Note: I had noticed this player raising waaaay too much preflop with AXs, so I had a hunch he had hit two pair on the flop, which puts him drawing dead. As such I'm not afraid of him as his betting into me is wanted.
Turn 7/images/graemlins/spade.gif
I bet, he raises, cap/call.
River J/images/graemlins/spade.gif
I bet my three aces and he raises, it caps, then he reveals a runner runner flush to beat me.
The question is then, was I right to put him on two pair, should i have bet differently especially given the fact that he bet into me with his backdoor flush draw? Also, since the pot was very large, was I giving him better odds to draw out on me by betting back at him?
Please let me konw what you think.
Thanks.
