c/r the flop

I don't mind betting the flop in hopes that villian will raise to shut out bb and utg. If it was hu or if I was in ep I would prefer a c/r.

Re: Playing AJ
 

its fine.

sometimes i fold the river if i dont think he 3 barrels anything i beat. online, thats not often.

also, your action is messed up. you are acting first on the flop and the villain is acting first on later streets.

He's not often raising with a worse hand though. Also what draws are we trying to charge?

We're trying to knock out the BB and UTG's silly little Kings and Queens, I think.

Sorry about that. It should be c/c on turn and river.

Re: Playing AJ
 

Perhaps I'm bringing this back to poker 101, but I have a question about the c/r recommendation.

Should I c/r because of the three bet before the flop and I expect him to bet the flop after a check? What if he makes it 3 bets to me? Fold or call planning to c/f if I dont improve?

This hand belongs in microlimits.

Doh! This does look like a micro limit post. Sorry about that. I would move myself if I could, but it is too late.
