Re: Playing from the blinds: QTs
Fine to me. Also valid to check and call a small raise I feel.

Seems pretty standard to me.

The only reason I posted this hand, is how do you view it differently from the 93o hand I posted? [/ QUOTE ] I don't mind the first raise there- you are going to be good most of the time. In fact, I rather raise that hand than this one. However his reraise is kind of scary... obviously he doesn't care what you have- he probably has you outkicked. |

Re: Playing from the blinds: QTs
What do you do when the flop comes...
Flop: (t60) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero ????</font> I'm asking, because I'm probably looking too often for c-raise opportunities as a more terminating effect on some flops (number of opponents, lead sizes, etc., etc. dependant of course). In a situation where your flop lead stands a better chance of getting called, how eager are we to still lead here? |

Whenever I hit one of these flops I want to take it down... a C/R is good to do that when it checks around to LP who minraises. Other than that, you're most likely check/folding because he will bet out more than a minraise. |

Re: Playing from the blinds: QTs
Seems normal to me.
I wonder, though, why you choose to bet here, but try for a check-raise with the KJ hand? |

Re: Playing from the blinds: QTs
See three posts up. I made that post before reading the KJ...having now read it, my concern has been addressed. |
