My thought is that the possibility that villian has a flush, a straight, trips or a lower full house makes this a raise...

push, and bet the flop next time.

[Gavagai]

Its ok to check occasionly though right? I bet 95% of the flops I hit.

[teamdonkey]

definately a push. you're way ahead of his hand range here, and he'll call with most of those hands. my guess is K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

[Fallen Hero]

yeah, it's ok to check sometimes, the problem is the strength of your hand will be incredibly obvious later on. You gave a free card to a flush/straight draw, the flush/straight hits, your opponent shows strenght,you push..what else can you have besides 68 or 88?

[Gavagai]

Do you think I should I should bet small enough on the flop that they will call with a draw? like .8 rather than 1.2 or something?

Unless you noticed this table is specially tight post flop I'd just make a normal sized bet, people always call when we have A6 here, why shouldn't they call drawing dead? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I put him all-in for about $15 more and he called with 6T. Just wanted to confirm that this wasn't a mistake... actually it did seem pretty obvious that it wasn't even as I was writing the post...
