Default Re: $400 6max: I flop top two pair but I hate my hand

if MP is as passive as you say, i think this is a fold. what is your image, have you been very LAG? Even then, MP may not be aggressive enuf to make a play here. I put MP on 77/66 here a lot (more 66, as you have a 7).

one thing that i havent seen anyone mention, is that even if we are ahead of MP, the button has outs to beat us. he has 5 outs ont he flop and 8 on the turn. if he has AJ then he has 5 and 5. so not only are you not necessarily good, but when you are good they will have outs against you. when you are no good, the best case scenario is you have 4 outs. since he is tight and passive, can he have a flush draw? with my minimal nl experience it would seem that he has a set or maaaaaybe 76s or 8d9d

I think you're in trouble here. 76 is possible but that's all you really like to see. I wouldn't expect to see a draw too often.
