Default Re: do I play this hand quietly because it\'s NL .25/50??

you played the hand fairly well, some mistakes though.. here are some comments:

First, with the 4$ preflop raise, that puts 8$ in the pot about when the flop hits 244. now, he has A2, when he checks to you, you bet only 3.50$, that looks like an overcard bet if i've ever seen one (it's less then half the pot)... so he calls you. That's not necessarily bad, in this situation you actually do want him to call you... however you could have bet more on the flop trying to take it down.

HOWEVER, assuming we stick with your play on the flop, you definitely made a mistake on teh turn, with 15$ in the pot now, I would have bet at least the size of the pot on the turn, trying to take it down... you bet half the pot again, a rather weak bet... if you play like a pansy, you will get drawn out on, remember that.

AGGRESSIVE PLAY
