Re: Pain in the backside AJo hand
[ QUOTE ]
I would bet even knowing that there is a chance that I am dominated. That would be the best way of thinning the field. The middle cold callers might call for 1 but be cautious that the buttn will raise. If the bttn does raise forcing the blinds to call 2. This way I can play against 2-3 instead of the full field. If I am behind I am only losing a 1/2 bet certainly worth the increased pot equity if I am behind. (this is not even considering that I am ahead and the extra bets are all profit if I win)
You decide to check and it is checked to bttn who has KK and figures that somebody has an A and checks it. Now how much did that cost you when an open end star8 or a flush draw opens up for a no hope hand.

Agreed. I would bet and hope the button raises for the same reasons mentioned above.
