I raised flop to find out where I stand. That's why I didn't call. Turn check I don't know why I did that? What I was thinking. Please tell me how and why you have played that hand.

You need to learn on raise sizing dude.

[MadeYaLook]

Mh.. you mean like about $4.8 on flop. Missed that. Thanks. What else?

[Milky]

Your flop raise needs to be bigger, to at least $3 or so. I'd also b/f the turn. As played you need to call the river. Villain could have a smaller pp or a busted flush/straight draw.

[Lego05]

Raise the flop bigger. 4.5 should be good. I like checking behind on the turn. A little pot control and 55-88 can stick around and draws that miss on the river may bluff. Now this is an easy call on the river and if he checked you would put out a value bet.


Another way to play this would be to bet the turn then hopefully check behind on river.

[Dallas Dru]

yeah get a way from the min raise.... the check is fine... as lego says to control the pot... but def an easy call on the river..

[jwalk]

Raise more on the flop to maybe 3-5 total. Cbet the turn for atleast 3/4 the pot

[TheDoubleA]

you have 11.54

raise to .4 leaves you 11.14
on the flop, you should have raised to a minimum of 3.6 but I like 4 for a nice easy number. If villian calls, the pot will be over 9.00 and you will not have a pot size bet left. This will let you push the turn very easily and not have to worry about this river situation at all.

Also, I HATE the check on the turn.

I didn't look at stack sizes. Given stack sizes after making a flop raise to 4 you hae like 7 left and the pot is 9 so go ahead and push the turn.....hope that 55-88 or spades call you.

[CrAcK_N_CoKe]

Nobody like to call flop sometimes?

Suppose u call the 1.2 , now he check the turn and now i fire a pot size bet.I think i prefer this line , if the turn is not a spade....and maybe an ace.

[monkeymaps]

this isnt a hand im really looking to get 3 streets of value from.
raise flop larger and either check turn with the intention of calling a river bet or
bet/push the turn.

[CrAcK_N_CoKe]

u can also chk-call flop , if the turn is chk-chk then call his river bet if theres no spade.
Theres a lot of line u can take
