Re: AA, and I blind bet the flop
Everything you do at a poker table should have a reason. IMO there's rarely a reason for a dark flop bet. Its often a good tool on later streets, but doing it on the flop is usually a bad move.
Mind sharing why you did it? |

Re: AA, and I blind bet the flop
I can see doing it here once in a rare while. Obviously you're going to bet 99% or more of flops anyway here with a small variety of hands, but doing it is going to make them suspicious about how vulnerable you are. It's like saying 'I have aces'. Some people will go 'oh, you have aces' and fold, but most will tend to call down with ever-so-slightly worse holdings, or maybe just not believe you have an ace. The river definitely has the case ace calling and the flop has pretty much any king.
It only works once if you actually get to show down AA though, since you can't be any more likely to gauge what they'll do knowing that -last time- you had the goods. |

Mind sharing why you did it? [/ QUOTE ] Well, I got two bets in on the flop three-way, and got to checkraise the turn. That was basically my plan. I wanted to get a lot of money into the pot post-flop out of position. Problem is, that it might have cost me the pot. It was a gamble, and I'm doing really well in Sklansky bucks. |
