bobbywithani 0 Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 besides not raising pre-flop I don't see anything wrong with it. Link to post Share on other sites
Webslayer 0 Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Seems fine to me. I may keep betting the river depending on my mood. It's very possible he's betting a weaker ten and not just pocket three's or deuces. He didn't cap the flop which I would expect with a set. Link to post Share on other sites
CoranMoran 0 Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I raise this preflop 100% of the time.Especially with a limper.- Isolate the probable lesser hand that limped.- Buy the button.- Add value to the pot with your good hand. He didn't cap the flop which I would expect with a set.With a hand as strong as a set, a player with position will often only raise-call the flop in order to set up another raise on the turn where the bets are bigger.Very common.So the lack of flop cap does not signify any sign of weakness.Villain's turn raise represents either Trips or the Full House.I play postflop optimistically as you did and 3bet.Once it's capped, the chances of the Full House are too high to push any more.I check-call the river.--CM Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't think you started running into that until 10/20 or 15/30. I haven't played much 1/2 at all. I skipped that level. So maybe you do... I figured at that level they'd either cap or just call the single bet and wake up on the turn. Link to post Share on other sites
