$10 PP SNG. I am big stack after 77 goes all-in after my PF raise and I held
KK during level /images/graemlins/cool.gif 1 . It is now level 2...
15/30 blinds...7 man table...CO and Button call...I raise to 140 from SB
holding Tc-Td. BB and Button call raise. Button now has 275 in chips, BB 570
and hero 1,525.
Flop comes Ac-5c-3c...I have pasted the hand below. Here are my questions:
1 - Was my PF raise amount appropriate for the situation?
2 - Looking for feedback on my flop bet...I liked this flop (I didn't feel
that both opponents were on an Ace) and I felt confident I was ahead of at
least one of them...is this reason enough to lead at this pot /images/graemlins/confused.gif ? Am I putting
too much equity in my four flush here? My thinking was that I wasn't going
to fold to a bet so I led out w/ a bet that committed my opponents
stack...i.e. put them to a decision.
3 - Do I need to bet out again on the turn or is it alright to try to check
it down w/ the knowledge that I will call any bet BB makes (I think I know
the answer here...if you are willing to call the bet then make the bet
right??? Would it ever make sense to attempt to "check it down" here?).
Any feedback is appreciated.
