I Keep Dreaming of This WSOP Hand...

[Black Aces 518]

I've been thinking about all these type of situations too. I think I would actually check behind the flop to exercise pot control. I'm not trying to go broke on the first hand with 200 BB and one pair. Obv. an ace or club on the turn sucks, but I hate the situation the bet puts you in worse. As played, I fold the flop.

I would bet the flop with 2 opponents, because it's more likely that the turn would turn my winner into a loser. The only hand where villain trails us on the flop and has more than a 25% chance of catching us on the turn is ace-suited of clubs, so I'm OK giving a card for free to greatly increase my chances of getting to showdown.

My plan for the turn is to bet 1200 if checked to, and to call a bet unless the A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] falls.
