I guess I just really hate checking behind and conceding the pot.

i'd bet 10 or 11 and shut him out. anything less, i think, and he may want to look you up with a K or weak A.

I basically like it. Opponent specific, of course. I'd make it $12 though.

Villain said, "AKo?" in the chat box, hesitated, then called with AQo. Excellent call after putting me on a hand you can't beat, lol.

You really expect him to fold AQo here?

-Skeme- · #5 10-05-2005, 12:52 PM

If he has me on AKo? Uh, yes.

No one ever actually "has" you on an exact hand. The fact that he said AK off makes it even more rediculous. He was merely stating a hand that is within your range that might beat him. Only an idiot says "AKo?" and then actually folds here.

He didn't say AKo, I put that in unconciously, and tons of people call opponent's hands before folding. Whether it be to save face when you call and lose to it or to induce a showing from your opponent, I don't know.

I think you should bet the pot on this flop. To coordinated and less likely to get a fold with the that bet.

River is fine against someone you think can fold but I probably make it 10 instead of 8. I think 10 and 12 accomplish the same thing so you can save 2 bucks by betting 10. I really feel the 8 bet get's called more often, maybe it's a psychological thing with it being only a single digit bet.

What does a PSB do that my $3.50 didn't? Psychological thing?

"Protects" your "overpair/set" more. On a super draw heavy board I typically bet close to the pot on the flop when I have a hand I want to protect. Villian may view the bet as showing that you don't find your hand all that great since you aren't protecting your hand as much. Of course I vary my flop bet sizes, but in general on this type of flop I am more apt to pot it.
