gutshots in the big blind

[Paluka]

I have read all the responses, and I still don't put a dime in on any of these boards.

Why not?

I think that you should be betting liberally here. 2 out of 3 times sounds like a good ratio. You may even want to checkraise some of the time. So, bet 50% of the time. Chcekraise 15% of the time. And yes, you should like the Ace high flop more than the jack high flop because (a) you are more likely to win it with a bet and (b) on the Ace high flop, if you are called on the flop, your turn decision becomes easier i.e. lean twoards chcekfold if you don't improve. On the jack high flop, you may be compelled to bluff on two more streets in case the dude called with overcards on the flop. That's a lot of bluff money for a small pot.

I think all these boards are too coordinated and in general are decent flop for limping hands.

A86r is too coordinated and is a good flop for limping hands? So what you are saying, basically, is that any flop is a good flop for limping hands. Because while it's not K52, it's pretty dang close.

A86 is not coordinated for a limping hand UTG IMO

I noticed I've subtley honed the ability to read Clarkmeister's posts with one eye while staring as his avatar with the other.
