Default Re: Butchered bottom 2

hand 2:

I usually fold this preflop. Small suited connectors are extremely difficult to play out of position. But the stacks are deep so maybe calling is correct.

I think you have to reraise the flop and try to win the hand right there. The button is in fact very scary with his deep stack. I would make it $280 to go on the flop and see what happens. If button calls you are still probably ahead and i'd go ahead and push a safe turn. If button reraises flop, fold.

If you opt to call the flop and wait for a safe turn card to come off (which is reasonable but probably not the best move) you have to lead out with the great turn card you got. $200's a good amount because you can fold if button pushes. You can't afford to give a free card here.

As played, I like value betting the river but only if button is incapable of making a big bluff.
