I had been playing pretty aggressively but my only showdowns were big hands.I have only been playing online for about a month now and am still trying to feel my way.I raised post flop trying to get a weaker pair to fold.

pauld22 0 Posted August 29, 2007 Author Share Posted August 29, 2007 sorry, I misread the post...No I dont' think you misread it. I want to know what to do after his raise too. I guess I just didn't ask well enough.Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
AKProdigy 0 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Autocall for me. I think you played the hand fine, I might have raised to ~2.50, but I want to get it all in here regardless. If he has a set, its a cooler, but I thinks its either KQ, QJ, or some kind of draw a majority of the time. Link to post Share on other sites
krup24 0 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 I think you played it fine provided you called the reraise Link to post Share on other sites
throwemaway 0 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 The decision was pretty much made for you when you raised the flop..By raising his overbet, you made a commitment decision there that your committed to his stack and on the flop, the money is going all in if the Villain wants it to. Now if he calls your flop raise, and shoves a club/J/K turn, then you have a bit of a tougher decision. Link to post Share on other sites
mtdesmoines 2 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Again, I go ahead and do it, only because of the level we're playing at. Link to post Share on other sites
whatgreatis 0 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Yeah I think this is an autocall and I'm pretty sure your ahead. He probably has kj qj or a flushdraw. I think a set would have check/raised instead of donkbetting. Link to post Share on other sites
cdannons 0 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 in this low stakes game this is an easy call. This would be much more difficult if you were playing for a lot more. But here, players move all in with anything. Your preflop raise was fine. Your raise on the flop was good. Now make the call, you almsot certainly have the best hand.
