Well played, Note him and move on

Flat calling is standard. Why are 2p2ers so anxious to raise flop bets with the likely best hand on a non-drawy board?

i agree Vyse, I think I hear the average 2p2er say 3bet the flop to $10-$15. Dunno why that is

What do you think of villains shove? What if we assume a good tight player is doing this, what range would you put them on? Surely even AQ shoving here is somewhat loose, isn't it? I mean considering the reraise pre, CO either has a set or AK or is loose and has a weak ace, right? Or this is a total bluff against a preflop reraiser who villain thinks doesn't have an ace.

ok good i was hoping its standard. im a sng player and id be much more likely to raise flop in a sng but i liked this line here.

TPTK hands are always read dependent. given that you called the flop instead of raise, you have to call the turn as well. nh.
