Default Re: Reraising with top pair weak kicker…

[quote Your idea of raising for information is sound in theory, but the information you gain may not be worth the price of the raise considering you'll have learned basically nothing if your opponent takes his most likely course of action and just calls then checks to you on the turn.

[/ QUOTE ]

If this occurs, take the free river card. Then you will be able to push/call on the river if you don't improve and no scare emerge or you can bet/raise if you hit another J or 10. As the the other posters have stated, it all depends on your read of the opponent.

In NL, this is not a flop to invest a lot of money in, as I can not see an opponent with a worse hand or missed draw paying you off on the river.
