Default Re: Blowing a $600 profit in under 5 minutes- how bad did i play? $200NL

1. I don't particularly like the push. If you lead out for $15 (2/3 of the pot) and he calls, you are committing him, so your money's in unless it's a nasty turn. However, you define your hand and you do have some fold equity. If he raises all-in, I'd have trouble calling it. If he flat calls, you're pushing the turn, like I said above.

2. I don't like a *push* here... However, it's not, really. You're betting $68 into a $83 pot on the turn, you're not pushing per se. Fine with me.

3. I dislike the open raise with JTs oop. Post-flop, I don't mind it so much, though I don't see myself pushing a draw without TP after a show of strength from the villain. All in all, I think that if you're going to play JTs from EP, play it cheaply and with a number of contestants, so your implied odds are through the roof.
