I would say readless, I'm not going broke on this board with tptk. I would bet 60 on the flop also. You'll see a set, 2 pair or an over pair here often.

Re: $16 BB TPTK spew?
 

I don't bet that flop and call a moderate bet.

As played, fold to the raise, their are 6 million hand that have you beat already and 6 other millions that will beat you with the 3 cards to comme.

3 cards to come? What game are you playing [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I should probably add that I was trying to get drawing hands to fold (or is that obvious). I didn't want to c/c because that's pretty much letting them try to hit their hands for free. what happens if instead of leading out, we c/c flop and a blank comes, meaning non straight/non flush card? c/c turn and river too if same deal? I figured I had the best hand on the flop and didn't want to play it too passively.

jago : ok, 2.

ehh i think its horrible.

Re: $16 BB TPTK spew?
 

Board is waaaayyyy too drawy with 4 limpers to the flop. You're most likely beat already and its gonna get worse not better.

Re: $16 BB TPTK spew?
 

lead 60, fold to re-raise.

you're up against a two pair&gt;set&gt;over pair&gt;straight&gt;bluff

if you think about the hand ranges ep and mp limpers have, what do you think you beat here?
