[ QUOTE ] I'm pretty sure I am done with this flop if I meet aggression. [/ QUOTE ] You don't like your overpair against a donk on a rag rainbow flop? [/ QUOTE ] There are a lot of people in this pot for me to be comfortable with a medium overpair. I think a push or a fold are both options.

Re: How Is My Check-Raise Here?
it does seem to be a pseudo bad-beat post but I think you push on the flop here - but donk might call with anything anyway right so you're playing with fire with your middle pp

Re: How Is My Check-Raise Here?
Everything went better than I had hoped actually. I mean, how can you not love getting all the money in as a 78% favorite to win the hand?
These sit n' go's you only start with 800 chips, so there isn't a heck of a lot of room to manuever. I had already seen this donk show down some hands, so I knew he was "donkish" His bet I figured for a weak continuation/probe type bet, so I took advantage of the situation and check-raised (I assumed he would bet given his pre-flop action, and I was correct, otherwise I would have come out firing myself if I felt it would get checked around) Once I check-raised and he pushed, I was getting pretty nice pot odds to commit the rest of my stack. I don't like folding in this spot, because it's one of the best flops for a hand like mine. And I don't like a smooth-call, because I'm not charging my opponent anything to draw out on me, and I'm leaving myself out of position. Let's say I just smooth-called there. When the board pairs 5's on the turn, I'm guessing the majority of you would push right there (I certainly would) not figuring my opponent for an A/5 hand. So I believe the check-raise was correct, but if I was going to check-raise for more chips than I did, than those of you who mentioned the push would be correct about that.
