Why are there so many of these posts on how to play monsters? A hand like this comes along maybe 3 or 4 times a week. Don't worry about it. Post some more top pair hands. [/ QUOTE ] This is an interesting monster. Plus everyone is [censored] it up. Krishan

Re: flop action?
Not betting this flop eats what's crapped out after eating monkey turds. The read was loose/passive. They will call. Unless you know something here that wasn't in the initial post, checking is giving away money, IMO.

Still, the pot is already fairly big, even a gutshot would call a flop bet here, I can't believe that on a loose passive table, that betting would be a horrible way to play this. Oh, wait, maybe we should wait for the turn to protect our hand [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

People forget them. I'm still waiting for someone with a lobotomy to say, "Fastplaying is the new slowplaying". Slowplay because, 1. You have a hand that is near unbeatable (crippled the deck) 2. A free card won't hurt. It may improve opponents hands to 2nd best hands or draws to 2nd best hands. 3. It disguises your hand as a turn bet after a check through on the flop just looks like AK or the like. Everyone likes to say, bet because people like to call. This is dumb. It's a little tough to call a bet on this board. Only 3 cards out match the board. There might be a gutshot or JT. Most hands will have just a single overcard. Maybe a pp under the board. This flop play on this hand was brilliant. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Krishan

Re: flop action?
Exactly what card on the turn that will change things enough for people to call in a now relatively small pot? I think you are more apt to get calls on the flop where people will still feel like they are drawing live.

Re: flop action?
What dream world do you live in where a flop bet folds the field? Some will call. Hell, you might get lucky and get raised by a 9. If you check that can't happen.
There's aslo a big difference between not betting and not raising. If someone had bet into our Hero, then maybe she should just call. If I was in this exact spot and it was checked to me I would bet if the board was QQ2 and expect to be called in at least two places, especially against a line-up like this one.
