Default Re: I dont know how to play mid pairs

Mmm.. leading flop has to be wrong, I think.

Villain cbets almost 100% of the time so c-c flop gets him to put money in with a lot of hands he would just fold on the flop.

If I lead on the flop he'll raise sometimes with flush draws and hands like AKo and I have to fold to that, which is good for him.

If I lead on the flop he'll just fold things like 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] which are drawing nearly dead and would've cbet.

He will fold things like KQo which are drawing live, but he's incorrect to put money in with those so it's +EV to keep him in with those with a c-c.

So I don't see how leading the flop is good.

Leading the turn I can see definitely might be the best option there but it still kinda sucks.
