Whats our line here?

just bet 25 and go from there, this does not commit you. I stack off against villian2 here, but probably not against 1.

err yeah I meant committed vs villain2 [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img], I wouldn't have any second thoughts about folding if Villain1 pushed over my on this board.

Bump for the afternoon members..

Ehm this is an awful board for A,K. check/call small flop bet.

Fold to turn bet.

[Robert A.]

meh, a somwhat bad board for your hand. Betting 25 seems fine though , I dont really like check/calling in this spot

[wtf5]

as i see it, you re-raise 4 times their inital raise preflop (make it a little bigger next time though!) and both call.

Against 2 people i dont see hands that you beat that will call a bet apart from a donk with A,Q. They both might have pairs and be playing for set value but they arent a threat and will probably check fold the turn.

Are you thinking more around $15-$16 here? My usual 3bet line is 3x the original raisers bet, adding another 1x for every limper between us. I guess if theres a chance that both players might call(such as these 40/10s) I might as well throw on an extra bet.


Anyways for wondering minds, I bet $28 on the flop. Villain2 pushed over the top for around $36 more with AJo for the nut straight and Villain2 folded. While I probably should fold against a decent player, this guy had been donking it up which warranted a call IMO. Also he called my 3bet after Villain1 entered the pot giving him better pot odds to call with marginal hands.
