Re: TPNK 20+2 Hand
I raise this flop for a couple of reasons:
1) You are on top pair of an unraised pot, you're likely the best hand so the raise probably has some value.
2) You may well win the pot with a raise -- this is the type of pot some like to take stabs at.
3) Your hand is extremely vulnerable to all manner of overcards that might call a small bet behind you.
4) You have position on the bettor -- so if after raising and getting called you hate what comes out on the turn (which ends up happening), you can always check behind and take a look at the river and might even induce a busted straight draw to throw a small bet in.
How's my reasoning?
