Default Re: 5-5 hand

excellent points! I felt that he would play his hand fast if he did have a good hand. so, if I am wrong and he did flat call I would be in some trouble. I fully agree that two pair is not really a great hand here, but if I read him for a draw (which I would have most times he flat called) then I would fire again on the turn, probably laying him 3 to 1 or so.

you have a very good point about him likely checking the turn. only problem is that almost half the deck makes it very hard for me to call a river bet. so it very likely ends with me check folding unless I can get a read.
