Default flops a monster....

Some history - 5-10. I limped early w/ JJ about 15 minutes before, called a raise from LP and stacked him. He had raised light w/ ATo, hit trip tens, and I hit a J on the turn. A little later I had limped w/ ATs, same LP player raises, I fold. He shows JJ. I tell him I had AT. We both laugh - ironic.

He has a little over 1k at this point, I have over 2k. I limp early w/ 33, same LP raises to $40 (his standard), I call. Flop is 233 2tone. What's your plan for the hand?

Is he loose, tight..etc., some more background would help. I would bet flop, make it look like i dont want fd to see a free card. Check call turn, lead river.

Good line.

I also like check raising the flop because of the presence of a flush draw. Then check/call turn lead river is ok, or just fire the turn as well.

I dont like CR'ing flop , just shows too much strength IMO, also i dont CR much, so if i did that, it might scare villain.

seemed to raise light in late position but was decent postflop. Didn't do anything out of line. Bet small to induce a call / raise on a TTx flop w/ AT on one hand. Had also seen me CR w/ JJ on a TTx board.

Then i like the line i gave u, checking turn ..u need to have him make a hand.
If he was tight, then it would be better betting turn, that board doesnt look too bad if u have AA or KK.

Def. don't C/R the flop unless you want to put him on the defensive.

Hmm...

I dont CR a ton, but I do it enough where its not going to make my opponent fold a hand here.
