Default Re: Bad Beat or Bad Play?

k, where to begin.

it's a bad beat but you set yourself up

early levels, my standard raise for a big hand is 75, you'll be suprised whta you get called with.

so you go 75 preflop and probably get it down to one caller.

you bet approximately 2/3- full pot on the flop. hopefully the guy hit the jack and wants to play, you also should be slightly wary of a heart draw.

if they're still around, see if something scary comes on the turn and if not, then typically push..... with this turn, a second diamond comes up, now the board is double suited and you might want to get your money in to stop somebody from pullin the draw on you cheap.


you set yourself up for this one by underplaying your hand quite a bit

it'll take some adjustment but you can win at 10+1s.

going to 30 just invites all the wrong hands in. as far as this joker calling down, if he calls a big bet preflop and stiff flop/turn bets drawing an ace, then so be it.
