Default Re: strange hand against mike l. 20/40

I think I'm getting checkraised a lot of the time by mike l., and furthermore I won't even know what it means. He's in perfect position to shut MP2 out for 2 cold on the flop, and the pot is 5BB before the flop is even dealt so it's worth him checkraising both an A and a hand worse than mine.

If I'm ahead, there isn't much danger in giving a free card really. Hands like QJ and JT only have 2 outs. If I'm behind, I'd love a free shot at a 4-outer or 6-outer.

And lastly, though this is in no way the primary reason, I shouldn't always be continuation-betting flops like this with hands like KK when playing against a 2+2er/TAG like mike l.
