[/ QUOTE ] Curtains, you've played long enough to understand the psychology of the donk. You must get into their donk brain: "Hmmm. I called with my pair of 9's. But this guy might have a big pair. He raised preflop. And now he's betting! I don't want to lose all my money here to QQ-AA again (as I've done 15 times the past two weeks). Lemme raise a little to see if he has AK or AQ. He'll surely fold, maybe call. Uh-oh, he reraised all-in. He must have a big pair." Folds. |

Re: AK flop play
This was exactly my logic, although I do see a lot of validity in checking behind.
I figured him for TT and he did fold. It takes one to know one, and I definitely know donks. |

Re: AK flop play
I really doubt that he had TT. Must be the worst player ever.

Re: AK flop play
Anyway real quick before I go, I am not saying that betting is bad or wrong or anything, however I would often check. The stronger my opponent is, the more likely I am to simply bet out the flop. Anyway just wanted to give some reasons for making a play that no one seemed to be considering! |
