Here's a hand I played from last night.
Firstly, forget about the fairly loose pre-flop play. I'm interested in the optimal way to play post-flop.
I was bit pissed off at the time (due to previous bad beats/bad play) and just thought "F*ck it. I'll just take the $70 in the middle- or the coin flip if I'm called" and just made a "lazy" all-in play partly because I was losing at the time and was happy to take a 50/50 gamble to get back to even! (A flopped pair + flush draw is 50/50 against an overpair.) (Incidentally, I know the push screams "flush draw" but even so, I think his call is terrible. He has to know he's 50/50 at best (a flush draw is most likely to have overcards to his tens) and he'll often be drawing to 2 outs to a slow-played AA/KK or set.)
Anyway, anyone agree/disagree with the following:Flop: Check/Raise Pot. Jam any re-raise.
Turn: Check/Call any bet. (14 outs gives us the correct pot odds to call a pot sized turn bet at 2/1 odds + greater implied odds if we hit.)
River: Check/Fold if no improvement. Bet out if we hit. (Maybe check/raise if we make 2 pair.)
