It is a 10/20 no limit game. I have about 2k as does the villain in the hand.
I open on the button for 60.00 with 5H 5C. The SB calls. The flop is 3D, 5D, 2D. This is a "good" flop for me, with top set. It's certainly vulnerable to a lot of other hands, however. The SB checks to me. A. Decision - Check or Bet flop? 1. Checking - This gives me the advantage of keeping the pot small in position with a vulnerable (and possibly powerhouse) hand. It also allows a hand with any diamond or possible gutshot straight draw to catch up for free. 2. Bet the flop - The problem with betting the flop is that I am opening myself to a possible raise, increasing the pot size, and potentially putting myself in a situation to make a difficult decision. B. Decision - I did bet on the flop after the button checked, for 120.00. The SB raised for 360.00 - So it was 240 to call for me. I think it's an easy call for that amount. If another diamond hits on the turn that might slow down any non-nut flush, a possible str8, two pair, or a set. If the board pairs I'm betting the pot on the turn if checked to, and moving all in if bet to. C. Another option - Reraise - A risky option. That's exactly what I did. In fact, I moved all of my chips in. Results to be posted. |
