Poster ramjam has just left the 1/2 UB game, and this hand comes up. Table is pretty loose passive for UB, I'm in the SB with A /images/graemlins/club.gifJ /images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
EMP limps, CO and button limp, I complete, BB checks. Anyone raise here? BB is pretty much "any two", so chances are my raise would accomplish nothing more than building the pot with a very mediocre raising hand (my internal Poker Tracker tells me I win with this hand approx 3% of the times I play it), so I didn't.
5 to the flop, which is 5 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif8 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif10 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif
I check (no particular reason, other than the 2 clowns to my left are pretty aggressive and I like my chances to CR and thin the field). It's checked around to the button, who bets, I raise, all fold to button who calls.
Turn is A /images/graemlins/spade.gif
I bet out, he folds.
The result was obviously good, but does anyone play this differently? Raise preflop? Bet out on the flop? Check raise the turn? Good as is? Thanks.
