Black bullets in poker heaven. Should I have listened to HEFAP?
Okay, maybe this is standard, but figured I'd post it.
I have black aces in middle/late position. Online $3-$6 game. 4 callers to me, I raise, and we see the flop eight handed for 2 bets each. The flop seems innocent enough. It's T 5 2 rainbow. It's checked to me, and I bet. The whole table calls. The turn puts up a Jack. Again it's checked to me, I bet and get two callers, both later than I. The river is an eight. I bet and get two callers. The button turns over T8 for the rivered two-pair and drags a pretty decent pot. My main question about this hand is the flop bet. I've read HEFAP countless times, but sometimes its impossible to practice what I read. So, should I have checked the flop and just called, hoping to confront people with a double turn bet? This sounds like such a good idea in theory, but on a rainbow uncoordinated board like this, I hate giving out a free card and letting people pick up a draw on the turn. Any other comments on the hand would also be greatly appreciated, but it's the flop that I wonder about most. -Huh |
