And rocks usually create...

Canterbury 30- Hand against a pro

Re: results
I think you're being a little too hard on yourself. Checking isn't terrible, especially against a good player who's likely to either raise you with a better hand or fold hands with few outs. Since...

Re: Trip Ks on the Flop
[ QUOTE ]
If you want to extract the maximum, is it a bad play to bet, get raised, and re-raise?

I play a lot in that game and still can't picture the player. The only option you list that I don't like is 2a). Of course, I also don't like folding.

Thanks for your response Dave.
Yes it was live. The only scenario I could think of where letting the big blind in helps me, is if the original raiser had me beat with a bigger pair. Now I'd be...

On the bubble
Blinds are $500 and $1000 with a $75 ante. I'm on the bubble with T-3500. The pay out structure is very flat.
A guy goes all in for 2500 (which could easily be a desperation play). Folded to...

Re: RESULTS
In other words, if the hand played out and the first player showed something like AA, I'd have probably assumed I played it fine and wouldn't have thought any more about it.

RESULTS
Of course, I didn't post this hand because I would've lost to AA. The bb had A5 of clubs, and the first guy had 99. I folded the best hand.
I really don't want to be results orientated. I...
