Default Re: Was this a bad play?

Preflop:

Nothng wrong with this play, you tried to blow the two limpers out and did get one of them to fold.

Flop:

Missed you, but I can't see it helping MP much either unless he called your raise with AT, 22, 88, or TT. You represented a big pair with your bet so a continuation bet is in order against one player. A bet of about 1/2 the pot seems about right.

The problem with a pot sized bet is that it would be 41% of your stack. Therefore, knowing that if I made the pot sized bet that I was pot commited, I would have had to push and try to push him out of the pot.
