1/2 Cash at the Vic

Alex if you suspected him to be a tricky player who might put you in a bad spot with a check raise you would have checked the flop behind.

You thought he was a straightforward player so you bet the flop for value.

Then he check-raises the flop. Obviously his range is strong - the fact you have a Jack kicker actually makes this easier to play, coz he could be check-raising a few better tens, in addition to his sets and 54s. Sometimes its a flush draw with one or two overs, you don't hate folding to that either.

Yes, sometimes he is making a stupid random play with a worse hand, but who cares? Most of the time you are crushed. Say thankyou to your opponent for making the hand very easy to play. Stop levelling yourself and tip the dealer a pound to shuffle quickly.

prolly fold the flop, fold the river as played i think.
