Re: Bottom two on single suited flop against aggro
55 and 99 are possible holdings here, but I don't see how they can be likely holdings.
If villian had flopped at set he would not be interested in giving me a cheap draw to a club. His minimum raise is giving me pot odds 4.2:1, or perfect odds for a flush draw, even if villian folds everytime a club turns.
Villian's actions makes perfect sense based on a wide range of possible hands.
Many aggressive players will represent a made hand on a typical dangerous flop (single suited, paired, sequential). If you automatically put your opponents on made hands each time they show aggression on these flops you're giving up tremendous equity.
I'll be happy to fold to a tight or timid players raise here, but I'm not happy about folding a strong hand on a dangerous flop to a player with a proven track record of bullish aggression and flaky looseness - at least not without furtner indication that I'm beat.
Best,
McMelchior (Johan)
