Default Re: I suck with stacks between 20 and 80 BBs

There's a reason why I don't steal with a bad King or Queen. You can flop a decent flop and be behing because you are always outkicked...I'd much rather do it with 56, 7-9 or something like that.

Anyway, given that you raise and got called, you can call or raise the flop. Raising the flop will put you on a though spot because you will have to make it expensive to price a FD out, so it will cost you a lot when he has a better Q. So I don't like to raise the flop.

The turn check is a good idea, but you can bet also so you won't have to pay a big river and the draw will likely fold. You must fold to a CR.

Don't raise just to steal blinds, raise to build a stack. I don't like to raise with a hand I feel I'll have to give up everytime I get some resistance.

You could go build your confidence at lower levels, this might help.
