Re: Weak TP, weak kicker - How do you play this?
[ QUOTE ]
If he had a higher pair he would have raised you post-flop. Why are you worried about your kicker? Do you think he has an 8 with a higher kicker? What sort of hand would he have called preflop with? What about the turn scared you? There is nothing intimidating about a 5. You said weak top pair....this seems to be intrinsically contradictory, especially considering the board and the lack of strength the others to the flop have shown. Weak in comparison to what? UTG having a higer pair? He surely would have raised preflop and raised post-flop. On that board your hand is VERY strong. Bet Bet BET.

Thanks Stretch. Yeah, you're right. He probably would have raised with any pair above 8 pf, except maybe 99. I should have just bet bet bet!
