Re: $22 - Heads up problem
The reason I hate these situations is because it's so damn tricky.
Say if I raise 3x BB my stack is now at 1900. What do I do if a Queen or a jack doesn't hit? Do I make a continuation bet if checked to? If I do, that severely dents my stack. What happens if and Ace or a King comes up? Do I still make a continuation bet? What if the big stack just comes right out betting and I don't have a piece of the flop? As you can see, it sucks because if I make a standard raise, I'm putting 1/4 of my chips in and any thing I do from the flop onward is using a huge chunk of my chips. I really don't know what to do?? |

Re: $22 - Heads up problem
If checked to on the flop I would push unless the board was strongly coordinated like a monocrone non spade 567 board. I don't think you have to fear it if an A flopped, many players will reraise with Ax preflop.
If villain bets first on the flop, then I agree you are in a tough spot. If he didn't pot commit himself you could probably still push over the top on most boards though, 6+ outs (twice) and FE is not so bad. |

I'm posting before reading the other responses.
Ratio is 12.5:1. Time to start thinking about playing an optimal push-call strategy. Easy push, esp. with QJs. The Shadow |

Yes it does look pretty, but I fold. [/ QUOTE ] Think about how good QJs when your opponent could have any 2 cards under there. This is a faceup push vs a fold. I think you can get fancy here and raise 2.5x BB, especially if the guy is weak-tight preflop or postflop, but I think I'd push quite a lot too. |
