This was almost a really good post.

We take a flop of 8d 5s 2s heads-up. The guy bets t1,000. I consider raising to t3,000 to get him off a strong Ace, but luckily realize how stupid that would be with my excellent draw - if he re-pushes I'll be forced to fold what easily could be the best hand.

Why in the world would you ever fold if he repushed?

Ahem .... the same occurred to me in the subway going home from work (after posting the article).

Hey, if I was in his place and was looking down on Ks Qs or something, I'd be tempted to push to a flop raise. But I guess that's far from justification for folding with the pot offering 3:2 ...

I'm still learning ... to remember to think, that alone is a handful!

Best,

McMelchior (Johan)
