Default Re: $55: turn play confusion

Well, I wouldn't limp preflop from that position and doing so is likely to be costing you money even if you are an expert postflop player.

Having done so, your flop bet is interesting and I like it.

On the turn your opponent has 2 pair an enormous percentage of the time. If you would fold TP/OESD getting slightly better than 2:1 and closing the betting action, why would you call with TJs preflop getting slightly better than 2:1 at the time with players to act behind you?

I say if you autocall preflop, you should autopush the turn. You rate to have 11-15 outs and you stack him virtually every time you hit. Plus, sometimes the obvious read will be wrong and you will actually be ahead.

FWIW, I fold preflop and fold the turn only if my preflop call was a misclick. If I'm drunk and gambooling, I happily limp preflop and push the turn if he leads. My point is that the play of the hand is incongruous.
