I figure flop is WA/WB. I think I should have raised the turn. I think I missed value [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

raise the flop and see what you're dealing with.

you're the aggressor in this hand pf. you're only behind 77 and 9x

Re: AA played too passive?
 

Flop could go either way, but if you don't raise the flop you gotta bomb that turn.

Re: AA played too passive?
 

I dislike a flop raise and like a turn raise. Flop raise is bad because villain dumps all his worse hands and calls with the better ones. Turn raise is good because there is more money in the pot and more draws to charge.

Definitely raising the turn..and I don't think raising the flop gets rid of that many hands. Any pp still calls, and AK may very well call too.

I agree, I should have raised the turn. I think in the long run, I missed value.

Re: AA played too passive?
 

Not only do you miss value, but you allow alot of draws a cheap card

If those hands are calling on the flop then we should definately raise the flop, for the record I dont think they are, and thats why I think we SHOULDNT raise the flop.
