Re: $11: two pair, 2nd hand
i bet this flop 100 percent of the time. your hand is definitely not good enough to slowplay, especially with two broadways on the board.

Re: $11: two pair, 2nd hand
Yeah I regret that and will keep that in mind next time.
What to do on the turn though? Higher two pair/straight/pair of aces/draw? |

Re: $11: two pair, 2nd hand
The turn was made alot tougher due to your play on the flop. I think you may have to dump it to that reraise your hand just isn't strong enough. There are so many cards that can come on the river that destroy your hand.

[/ QUOTE ] My amatuer opinion: you are officially behind on this turn. He has a hand strong enough to give you both the turn (act I) - less likely a blatant act of aggression/punishment for you raising HIS cheap river card (act II). I think this would fit into the "good fold" category. |

Re: $11: two pair, 2nd hand
As always you are correct.
He held AQ. I was fairly surprised. I've got a looooooong way to go . . . |

Re: $11: two pair, 2nd hand
I'd pot bet flop. Great hit for the discounted entry on SB, but not strong enough to be slow.
As played, on turn after slowplaying it, you got a bite, so I'd push him allin. If he was slowplaying AA, you deserve to die. If he had A2, you deserve to die. If he was slow playing JJ or QQ, you were dead already. If he has two [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]s you gotta keep him from drawing if possible. A question for those correcting me, what if you potbet that flop, and get one caller? Then what when the A hits? I would guess bet again, but fold to rr (had a pair, and hit his A?). Or if you get a raiser on the flop potbet? That seems tougher to me because QJ seems possible, or set of ducks. call it on down, or do you have to bet into that turn 2nd [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]? These bottom 2-pr situations really bug me, so I hope liucipher gets some responses. |
