(11) flopped set on drawish board
This is the first hand I've played and about the 5th hand overall. The only "useful" info is that BB has opened with a minbet on the flop every hand he's played.

I like a continuation bet of half-pot on the flop. Many don't see the difference between bet sizes, so will just as readily fold to a half-pot bet as to a larger one. The half-pot bet...

Re: $11 Party--AK OOP 1st round
Ah, well, that would be because I'm an idiot. When posting it, I mistakenly thought Button had called instead of BB. I knew I was in position when playing, I swear. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Re: $11 Party--AK OOP 1st round
Yeah, I know the whole hand is weak, but I was so afraid of pissing away chips early in an SNG with just ace-high that I couldn't bring myself to be more aggressive. This certainly didn't work,...

$11 Party--AK OOP 1st round

First off, thanks for the replies. I knew this probably wasn't the best line to take, but the hand confused me a bit, especially after I saw Villain's hand.

Re: TT -- checking through
I say bet the river; it looks like UTG wanted a free look at the river and didn't hit his draw. You're only behind someone holding a queen or a higher PP (which should've raised PF), and there...

Re: Flopping top two - when to worry about a set
[ QUOTE ]
You think MP1 would force the field to call 2 bets on the turn with a flush draw? If he is willing to do that, then he is showing really good flop play with really bad turn play.
