middle pair on flop in LP. C/R by LAG.
 

MP2 = LAG.

I have K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] in CO. UTG+1, MP1, and MP2 limp. I also limp. BB checks. (5 on flop)

Flop: K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

All checks to me, so I bet. All folds to MP2 who raises.

At this point, there's nothing I can do but let it go, right? No redraws, middle pair, fairly uncoordinated board. He has me beat, right?

But was it correct to at least take a stab at the pot with middle pair?

you mean MP2 check raised you? or you were button?

looks good so far, whether you peel, showdown or fold is really read dependent. Realize you're getting 8:1 on a call closing the action in position and that's about how likely you are to improve to 2 pair or better on the turn, so if he's really aggressive and could have almost any Ax then you should probably at least see a turn.

Xhad: Yes, sorry. It was MP2's C/R. I just edited my post to correct that error. And thanks for your help; your post makes a lot of sense. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

if u tagged him as a lag he would raise a king on the flop. he would probably wait til turn to raise a nice ace. i might 3-bet here and bet turn to get him to laydown. idk im an overaggressive donk though it would depend on numbers. do u know what his Pt numbers are
