Re: Between a Rock and a Hard Place?
Kurn,
I think the other posters have discussed the mistake preflop on this hand. However, seeing as you did see the flop, you now have top pair second kicker. Since you called 800 preflop, what sort of flop were you expecting to see? Short of flopping trips or better, this is about the best you can ask for. Now that you're in the hand, I call here without hesitation. Were you hoping to miss the flop so you could fold unimproved? If so, what was the point of playing the hand in the first place?
You called 1/3 of your stack preflop and just made top pair, queen kicker. I think at this point you have an easy call.
