Re: 77 river decision
Aggression is good in a lot of situations. However, raising a weak king is bad IMO, especially in a small pot. You are folding K10 like 0% of the time. You are folding a hand like 77 or JJ that will incorrectly call one on the flop (not to mention bets on the turn and river). You are getting 3bet by a bigger king or a set, or a semi-bluff (so either you have to call down with a worse hand or get bluffed out of the pot). And by calling, we collect bets from hands that are calling incorrectly, and we lose the least when we're behind.

For instance, I want them to fold better kings. That would be a mistake [/ QUOTE ] how often do they do that versus peel one (when they would have folded for 2) with a 4 or ace high? and he'll cold call with JJ, but fold a better king? |

Re: 77 river decision
So none of you guys agree with me on raising the flop?

It has gone off-topic, true, but I still think it's an interesting discussion, one that we all can benefit from in one way or another. If the original poster is offended, I apologize. |

Re: 77 river decision
I probably still wouldn't for the reasons outlined above. Give me something like J9s on and turn the king into a jack and I raise.
EDIT: Maybe I'm wrong though so I want to hear what people think. I just think that I want to see a showdown as cheaply as possible, don't want to slow down worse hands, and I'm not too afraid of giving free cards as I have a pair of kings on a dry board. |

Re: 77 river decision
with a weak K, because the pot is big enough that I would like pairs and gutshots to fold...but it's close. Heads Up I would call with a K against the bettor, but here there are 2 other players
