Default Re: 10/20- Finding my balls... I think I relocated one of them

Maybe this is somthing I need to work on, but as far as I can tell the only thing you can beat is a flush draw, deuces and a stone cold bluff with an ace or something. I'm thinking raise the flop and see what he does there and probably bail if any more action comes my way. I'm weak in this area of blind steals and small pps anyways, so I'm curious as to what others have to say.

raising the flop is many times (not always, though) construed as weak; this under the general theory of "playing strong is weak" and vice versa.

flair: good luck at the new limit. fwiw, i foud the jump to 10/20 to be no big deal though it took some adjusting to the higher pfr % that one generally encounters here. many players, multis and others, nonchalantly reflect 12-14% pfr.

on the hand in question, pf is fine as long as you haven;t shown something like this down recently.

postflop power call (controlling villain) is good, imo, as long as:

1. your image is tag and not overly tricky
and
2. your recent hands shown down were strong (not sufficient for you to be tag "the last couple of days")

as you know... to the extent that you get caught showing this type of hand down, you must expect to be looked up going forward and be flexible enough to alter your play accordingly.
