Check call, lead turn in most cases. Like curtains said, you don't want a big pot and the above line gives you a fair bit of information relatively cheaply. [/ QUOTE ] Why c/c, lead turn instead of c/r flop?

[/ QUOTE ] Why c/c, lead turn instead of c/r flop? [/ QUOTE ] Grunch. My assumption is that this keeps the pot smaller for taking impetus on a safe turn card (like the one that happened), if we decide to do so. If the turn is a club or an over, we can easily release. The way I played it, with the c/r, if villain calls, and the turn is a club or an ace (or any over), we're up sh*t creek. This is just my interpretation, I don't know if it's the correct/best line.

Re: Playing from the blinds: J9o
Yah, check/calling then leading a safe turn is a cash NL play where you have a marginal holding and think your opponent might be playing a strong draw or something like that and you don't want to get blown off of your hand.
It is only a deepstacked play though although I'm sure a variation can be used properly with shallower stacks in a tournament situation using an open push on the turn. That being said, c/r is too expensive and c/c lead the turn lets you get off cheap cus people either have the goods or big balls to push over a turn 2/3 pot bet.

Re: Playing from the blinds: J9o
Check/raising here is unl33t and very expensive. Check/call and lead the turn for 2/3 the pot. People who push over turn bets like that tend to either have very large balls of brass or a very strong hand.

Re: Playing from the blinds: J9o
Check-raise cost him 125
Check-call/lead 2/3 is 100 into a 150 pot costing him 130. Costs slightly more. I like betting the flop for 75, seeing what happens and getting away with a small pot or having enough information to make a laydown. If he calls, bet the pot on a blank turn.

Re: Playing from the blinds: J9o
I look at my stack size at the beginning of this hand and figure I'm in decent, but not great shape.
Okay, I flopped TPWK, on a drawish board. I kinda like my hand, but I want to put a 'stop loss' on my stack and not lose too much FE defending a marginal holding. I see that I'm against just an MP caller and the BB. I'm either check-calling, or leading at the flop. (Obviously I'll check-fold to a significant bet.) On a 22 anyway, I think that the best approach is to lead at the flop and go from there. But my main point is, wtf do I want to commit a signifcant portion of my stack to this hand? (That is, I'm NOT check-raising.) However I decide to play it, I'm not losing a bunch of chips here unless my hand improves. If someone outplays me and takes this pot, well, it's not the end of the world. It's an unraised pot and BB could literally have any two cards. Pissing away a boatload of chips trying to outmanuever someone in an 800 chip game IS the end of the world. Just my 'weak-tight early in SNGs' take...

Re: Playing from the blinds: J9o
c/r flop, lead turn is probably the best way to spew chips
if you call this preflop, lead flop yourself. right now youre putting in 325 post-flop to find out if your J is good. w/o reads, youre not betting for value. leading flop lets you find out post-flop if youre good for 60-80 chips
