Re: $5-6/6-8\'s, small pair on flop
These type hands are very difficult to play. I like your lead on the flop, however getting called on this drawless board says to me that the CO has something.
I think a 2 is unlikely, although you never know at the 5's, as people will play A/K/Q-2 suited. More likley he has something like JT, T9, AT or a pocket pair. I'd likely try to check this hand down and maybe call a small bet hoping villain will turn over 66/77. Anything more than a small bet and I'm done with this hand, as your not ahead here very often. |
