now what?
 

Villian is fairly new to the game and I'm really not sure what the best line to take after his flop raise. I really only see two options and that is folding after the raise or pushing. I would like some insight as to what you think I should do and the reason why you would do that.

Without reads on this dry flop you have to get the money in. I'm going broke if he has 22/33/88 because those represent such a small percentage of his holdings. He could have 99-JJ and think you whiffed with an AK type hand. Even if he has some gimpy twopair like 83 or 23 or 82 we're not drawing completely dead; those are also highly unlikely unless he's a total moron.

In other words, poooosh without a read. We're not scared of anything on this flop.

As to the hand........ this is classic play by 33/22
Ugh, Its either a fold or Push........ any kinda reads?

Re: now what?
 

Hey jmgambler,

Thanks a lot for the advice I'm new to posting and just starting to get the hang of it.

Also quick question for you. What feature did you use at that site to get the cards to show up like that?

As to the hand he had just joined the table a few hands before this so I don't have any reads as of yet

Re: now what?
 

If you look on the hand I converted for you, there is a link to "LegoPoker"... bookmark the site.

Back to the hand, No reads?...... Ugh, I probably stack off here... but when he flips 22/33 I would just nod my head and say "yup"

Re: now what?
 

I went to that site and tried to do it but the converter kept coming up all weird and didn't show the cards like it did on the hand you converted for me. Is there anything special I need to do?

As to the hand... I pushed and he had 33. I just wanted to make sure it was ok to stack off here.

Uh huh, did you read my post.... classic 22/33 play (I prolly get stacked there too......maybe[img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img])


OK, go to the site,
a)copy/paste the HH into the space....
b)Make sure "output" box says (2+2 forums)
c) click convert
d) It will look messed up, but ONCE you copy/paste that conversion into the 2+2 forum it will look OK,

(The other rubbish is how THIS forum adds colors/italics etc)

Good luck

stack off.
