I'm going to be in the vast minority on this one, but I fold to the flop bet. I put the SB on a small to middle pair. The fact that there is another player, as weak as he may be, changes the hand whereby I think you have to pitch it.

I fold to the flop bet too, but I don't necessairly put him on a middle pair - he could have realtive dust to a typical sb raise since the limper was a donkey, or a monster; I don't think it really matters. . . why do you think you will be in the vast minority on this one?

I think I would rather 3 bet preflop than take this line.

Big time. Then I would 3-bet preflop and lead on the flop. being able to get the donk's dead $ out of the hand preflop while taking control over the SB has major advantages, IMO.

Well, I figured that most would say 3 bet or fold pre-flop.

lol, get the donkeys dead money in and get him out preflop ...

most donkeys just open limp then fold after they have already decided they have nice hand to see a flop with

I'm sorry, I must have misunderstood your post. I thought instead of a limping donk we now have a posting checker.

Or, maybe I have no clue how to play, which is entirely possible! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Sorry TSP, we do have a limping donkey, I was just wondering if the line would be better if instead of a limping donkey we had a poster that decided to check his option.

The reason I posted this hand is because I was talking to friend that plays these games and beats them and he hates my line. I like being told that my line sucks, as long as there is some rational to it.

I feel there is a decent chance I have the best hand on this flop, I hate calling because this entices limping donkey to call along, now I have no idea where I am if SB leads the turn. I for one know I will raise KQ from the SB in this spot and follow thru on the turn if the BB and limping donkey just call (peel) on the flop.

I think a fold is better than a call, but I think I can define my hand with a raise and see if I have the best hand.
