Check flop, you have zero to none FE.

You're getting ~ 3:1. Shorties could have anything. I call here.

No reads given so I fold to the flop c/r. Villain might be doing this with a draw but probably with a draw better than yours. You have a gutshot, with 2overcards and a barely mentionable non-nut bdfd. Your 6 outs to top pair are often not clean because of the possiblility your opponent makes a bigger hand when a K or A comes. Your vulnerable to being reverse dominated even if you do hit a Ace or King. Hands such as AT, AJ, KJ, JTs and maybe even KT are all a part of villains range here.

I agree w/ this. I hate cbetting shortstacks and having them call/raise w/ middle pairs. Just take the free one and fold if he bets the turn.

Yeah Push &gt; Bet on the flop, but why push? You're only getting called by hands that beat you. He's never folding a J and most of the time he calls w/ a ten here too. I'd just fold if he bet the turn after I checked flop too. Why give him $8 dollars? You had a super strong hand pf, didn't improve while seeing four cards, let it go.

I hate calling the flop raise. Why call on the flop? I doubt all your perceived outs are clean as an A/K may well give villan two pair.

no doubt.

calling the flop re-raise sucks really bad too. you have likely 10 outs, check behind and see a free card.
