Default Re: Post Flop Play - Passive Better Than Aggressive...discuss

Oh, threads back!

I'm aggressive as hell with the BTN. If facing a marginal decision between limping along and raising the CO/BTN to take control over the limpers I take the later route probably 75% of the time. But in poker you can't help but be OOP a fair proportion of the time. If I get AK or 1010 in an EP I'm still going to raise and chances are someone between me and the BTN will call.

Today I tried firing 2nd barrels a little more with mixed results. Sometimes villain would fold but often they would call down. No idea yet if it was a more successful strategy.

Mike, curious as to why you'd float me in an unraised pot multiway. There aren't many/any hands that I'd bet out multiway in an unraised pot and then shut up shop unless a very scary turn card came (such as this case). With a very weak king here I'd usually check/fold (reverse implied odds) and with the K10 I had I'd fire a second round if only called in one spot and the turn was safe.
