Title: did i play this right?
Post by: Ironside on July 18, 2009, 08:33:43 PM
my read on oppo is that he has  Ax i waited till turn to shove so that i had a better chance of the double up

should i be check raising the flop and taking it down there and then?

Pre is bad..very bad.

Turn is bad as well. I hate check calling the flop and then pushing the turn. What do you think oppo is going to do there when he doesn't have Ax (or even a weak Ax)? Why not check to him again hoping he fires another bet?

It's already been said mate but fold pre definitely.

Calling off 10% of your stack out of position with KQ off is unlikely to reap rewards.

As played lead the flop. His raise usually means AK, 10 10 or JJ to me. Hope it's AK and he shoves your lead. If it's JJ you're not getting paid much more unless he c bets and you're certainly not getting your double up.

Really? Surely suitedness adds so little to the hand and even if you flop a flush it's only second nuts

( or have I misunderstood the [ ] thing again?)

Suitedness is the nutssssss. Increases by like 15% and looks so so pretty

I thought/hoped ;-) you weren't serious but on a learning board it's important to have fairly accurate info to balance the levelling.
