Re: Thinking ahead with continuation bets
Agree.. I don't see where we "Can't get away from it.." if we're re-raised.
We surrender the the pot with a check because we can't get away from it if we bet? Nonsense. 200-250 is perfect amount. Who says you have to call another 500 with your 6 outs (best case scenario) ?? I'm stunned at the willingness of people on this forum to surrender their chips when they are behind (because the pot is big) in these MTT's. |

Villian should have pushed his JJ overpair on the flop. He risked letting you take a freecard to hit one of your overcards. I think you fold your AK 100% of the time to a push on the flop. [/ QUOTE ] Well... considering how often people make continuation bets with AK and AQ type hands, I prefer the JJ checkraise here. If you open push you only get called by better hands. Blech. Kings |

Re: Thinking ahead with continuation bets
I like a check here. I check because it is certain that one of them call with 33, 55, 66, etc. If they check to you on the turn though, you should fire out about 325 and see where they are at.

Re: Thinking ahead with continuation bets
pretty rare, like one in ten?
Even if we count AX hands where the X pairs, and no AA-KK, we are still at apx 23% |

Re: Thinking ahead with continuation bets
I think JJ made somewhat of a poor play that failed to protect his hand. While I will say that he was able to get the best of it, I think it would be smarter for him to bet out the flop and take it down rather than drag you along.
He has the intention of checkraising with a small stack. He should know himself that you are obligated to call in this situation because he has a small stack. Therefore, he should avoid giving you price to beat him. (Who really thinks this far ahead...). And through all of that, he was willing to give a free card! |

Re: Thinking ahead with continuation bets
I think it's just as likely they are holding K-Q, K-10, Q-J, J-10, K-J, K-9, and other crap like that.
I certaintly wouldn't call 250 with a small pocket pair out of position. I think that's a terrible play, but maybe I'm giving these guys too much credit. |

If you have ever played online, you would know that this happens on a regular basis in non-big MTTs. |

Re: Thinking ahead with continuation bets
I check here without even thinking about betting mostly because I would check AA here too trying to get the rest of someone's stack.
I'll make my decision on the turn as to how I want to play it. |

Re: Thinking ahead with continuation bets
How much of a bet would you call on the turn if the turn is a total blank (like an offsuit 3)?
