Default Re: Pocket 10\'s in the BB... how\'d I do?

The flop raise is good, but you have to follow it up with a turn bet. You were banking on your opponent betting a draw when you raised the flop. You got the result you wanted... now don't give him a free card on the turn! [img]/forums/images/icons/smile.gif[/img] You can fold to a checkraise, so you can feel free to bet away on the turn.

As for the river... if I had to guess, it looks like your opponent has a J and is now afraid that you made a free card play on diamonds. You might want to fire out a bet as a combination value bet/bluff.... you might get called by a worse hand, and you might get a J to fold.
