Default Re: Pocket Pairs / First Post

Thanks for the responses.

I probably should have excluded hand 1 from the post, it pretty much plays itself. As predicted above, villan showed J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].

Hand #2 my thinking was this. I couldn't automatically give credit for the Ace, I raised to possibly get information and take the lead back. On the turn I thought there was a possibility I was still in the lead, so I bet. On the river I took the cheap showdown figuring I'd get called only if I was beat. Villan showed A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].


Hand #3. I have a tendancy to get too attached to high pocket pairs (AKQ). I am trying to figure out when to let them go. Would have been more appropriate to call down after the 3rd heart hit? The pot was only 5BB at that point. Villan showed A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] for the flush.
