color me confused. yes, the sidepot is dry, but this is the 55s, so it is less likely that an opponent would know to not bet into a dry sidepot without a good hand. also, the bb was getting ~6:1 which would make calling with any two correct.

I like your line, for the most part, though I would ponder calling the river. How big a bet are you planning on calling on the end after calling the turn? If you're going to fold to all bets, I'd prefer either folding or raising on the turn.

I actually dont dislike your line because people don't often make plays at a protected pot without a very strong hand, but I wouldve still bet the flop and shut down if called.

Given this fact, I really don't know what you were trying to accomplish with the flop check rap... Help? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

well, as i said, this isnt my traditional way to play the hand. but.. im not a very traditional person.. sometimes i get tricky. his river bet made me sure i was beat, and i got to find out anyways [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

as for the flop check.. it was one of those feelings ya sometimes get where yer body just moves without thought on instinct.. usually works out well for me though. wish it happened more often. holla
