Pot Odds RAC 23 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Pretty standard bet sizing. I assume we are putting UTG on some sort of strong Ace, but the only hand we're really getting any more value from is two pair. Link to post Share on other sites
Temporary Nuts 1 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 this bet was wonderful, nhflatting pre is ok as long as you don't go completely bonkers when you flop an overpair Link to post Share on other sites

CoolHandPuke 0 Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 That turn bet is fine and pre-flop flat is OK as well. Link to post Share on other sites

CoranMoran 0 Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I see people frequently presume that when a villain folds to their value bet, it means they did something wrong.And that simply isn't the case.Because there will be many instances in which our opponent just doesn't have a hand to play on with.So we were not going to get any more value from him, no matter what we did.You just have to make your bet with your monster, and hope he has something to call you down with.If he doesn't have that Ace, then the hand will be over.If he does, he will pay us off.--CM Link to post Share on other sites
