Default Re: Should I have raised? #2

[ QUOTE ]
I did not say it wasn't a good hand, its just not a monster. And I am not suggesting that a raise is not in order either. But $1,600 into a $100 pot? What I am saying is that if you learn to play better post flop it is possible to get away from this without losing all your chips.

didn't I say in my first post that the 1600 flop bet is ridiculous?

however, here's an example of what the action might go like normally: you pot it, he raises to 300-400. you now have two moves: you can reraise to try and push out any draws, or my line (right or wrong) would probably be to smoothcall and push a brick turn. if a diamond or a gap-filler comes on the turn, i'm done with the hand. but if a 2s comes, I'm putting all my chips in anyway, and he's instacalling with the nut straight.

when am i supposed to get away from the hand, assuming the turn is a non-threatening card?
