Don\'t you just hate those min-raises...
I'm making this hand up so hopefully it will be interesting enough. First hand of a 22-33. You're dealt AKs in MP. Folded to you and you raise to 75. Folded to the button who calls.
Flop: J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] You make a standard continuation bet of 125-150. Villian min-raises. What do you do? I know some people think this is an easy fold, but I feel stupid folding to min-raises. Just feels super weak. |

Yes, I do hate it, and it's why I don't always cont bet a flop like this.

Re: Don\'t you just hate those min-raises...
Ok. But check/folding seems even more weak. And check/calling seems too dangerous.
|
Re: Don\'t you just hate those min-raises...
Bah dangerous indeed. It depends on the size of the bet and all sorts of things whether you continue or not with the hand.

First hand of a 22-33. [/ QUOTE ] This is the first hand. You missed the flop. Your OOP. Unless you have specific notes on Villain...Let it go. |

Easy fold. He probably has something, and he's probably not letting it go at the 22/33s.

Re: Don\'t you just hate those min-raises...
I'm always confused by this, too. Maybe we should play it to the end the next few times it happens so we can see what they have. It might be +EV in the long run.

Or what if the flop is 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Now it's pretty obvious to the villian that your bet is a c-bet. But you can also be kinda sure he missed the flop too. Does this change anything?
