Cant trust the damn converter anymore...did you CR? Or push the flop?

Not that it changes too much (if a CR would depend on his bet amt)...

Ill assume you pushed the flop and it looks good to me...you're not getting called by much and if you do, you're still a solid 40% to win (maybe a little less but whatever).

I likey

I always fix it before I post. I acted first and bet.

Does anyone else push this pre flop assuming the button isn't a complete idiot? I seem to get a fold here about 90% of the time.

edit: I suppose we can determine that the button isn't too bright considering he limped in this spot, but the vast majority of the time a limp here is just a bad player with a marginal hand that he doesn't want to go broke with.
