Default Re: How could I have built the pot better?

You understand that the reason the pot is so small is that you hold all the good cards, right? You've crippled the deck.

Yeah, I was hoping someone else was holding Qx (until the river, natch) or Jx and might think they had a shot. Or that they could outkick me with Ax. Guess not.... [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

That having been said, I bet the flop, on the theory that

1) Look at me, I'm betting when checked to.
2) It's easier to call one SB than one BB.
3) I bet many hands here.

Yeah. So, maybe they would have all called, giving me another 1.5 BB? And maybe think that they were more pot-committed on later rounds, or that I was just continuing to try a steal?

Thanks,
Mike
