Default Re: 22$ first hand QJs in BB

I think I would bet out because of the flush draw, but the check/raise looks good too. You have to raise the flop. I'd bump it up to 250 or so. And I'm calling if he pushes. If not, I'm pushing on the turn.

Right now, we have TPWK and and OESD. But there's two to a flush and there could easily be two pair, TP better kicker, flush draw out there.

This pot is small at this point. I like either calling or (gasp) folding. (I would call, but folding would not be a disaster here IMO.) I'm certainly NOT raising at this point. I'd probably just call and see what the turn brings. Keep this pot small for now. I think that raising here is a huge mistake, since there is a decent chance that we are not currently ahead AND raising isn't making both of them go away.

I guess part of my reasoning is this: the typical player on the 22s basically sucks. No need to get knee deep OOP on a scary board when we may or may not be ahead. See what the turn brings, then re-evaluate, IMO.
