Re: What do you do with this pair?
[ QUOTE ]
i call pre-flop and check-fold. [/ QUOTE ] This seems like the general consensus on this hand. Given the flop, is the t200 bet (remember BB is actually 100, I mistakenly wrote 200 in the OP) with this flop texture a mistake? I thought this bet was likely to take the pot, but was minraised instead, forcing me to commit more chips. Is it safe to say this probe bet is -EV in the long run and that check/folding the flop is the correct play? MisterW

Re: What do you do with this pair?
the probe bet is great if you think villain will fold AK consistently. i'm just not sure that's he's going to.
[ QUOTE ] but was minraised instead, forcing me to commit more chips [/ QUOTE ] it's allowed to fold to a min-raise. the only way you should call it is if you think it's reasonably likely that AK will minraise and then check behind on the turn and river. that's not too likely, so i'd fold to the min-raise.
