correct to slowplay here?
Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (7 handed) converter
Preflop: Hero is UTG with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Hero calls, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, SB completes, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>. Flop: (3 SB) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, Hero calls. Turn: (2.50 BB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB calls. River: (6.50 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, SB calls. Final Pot: 8.50 BB was it correct to slowplay on flop? I felt a raise would drive him scared, so maybe it would be more worth it once the bets doubled |

Preflop: Hero is UTG with K, Q. Hero calls, 4 folds, SB completes, 1 fold. [/ QUOTE ] The BB folded...lol Anyhow, you have to raise this preflop. Raise the flop. He's sticking around with anything decent probally so get the bets in and hope he makes a second best hand |

Re: correct to slowplay here?
Holy crap. What is it with everyone wanting to get cute by slow playing in micro-limits. (Sorry, just venting.)
First of all, am I reading this right, the BB folded instead of checking? Wow, what a table. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] I can only quote davelin so many times. 85% of the time, they'll just call you. If you have a REALLY excellent read on this guy being a complete tight-wad, go ahead and slow play since he's the only one in the pot, and it's a small one at that. Keeping in mind of course, that the next card could be your undoing. |

Re: correct to slowplay here?
I would usually play it like you did, though if I had a read on Villain as being particularly LAGgy or somebody particularly prone to calling down with weak hands I might go ahead and raise the flop.

In a 7-handed game you should raise this preflop. The rest is fine, no need to scare away your only opponent in such a small pot. Top two IS is monster HU on this board.

raise UTG with KQo? I thought that was a definite no-no, I was getting reamed for limping UTG with KJo on a diffrent post, so I thought it was marginal to limp with KQo.
(btw, it was an AWESOME table [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]) |

Re: correct to slowplay here?
I would especially play it the way you did given the preflop limp. I would normally raise here, however, because normally I am raising this preflop.

[/ QUOTE ] I'm actually more likely to slow this down if its a LAG. The way I see it, there is an extra SB to win on the turn by just calling the flop if he is a LAG because you can expect him to lead the turn, at which point you can raise him. |
