Re: LO8: Top pair, nut flush draw and 1 blocker
You damn right I'm digging for pair specific posts! I have a leak in my post flop game, Buzz, and I desperately need to find and plug it.
My first thought on my leak is maybe how I play pairs, in low limits with so many players in the pot, pairs are damn dangerous. I'm almost tempted to slink up to 2/4 3/6 to not worry about it, but that would be bankroll deadly and I would fail to master the underpinnings of adapting to large multi way pots. I love game theory too much to cheat.
I didn't see the 'push Villian off pot at Turn' bet because I'm too adjusted to low stakes. Simple oversight -
1. Villian will call me to showdown with any 2 pair, and sometimes 1 pair. Even less on a bluff.
2. Villian often will check behind me.
But back to the hand. Does the turn bet option statistically dominate the check option? And does check/fold have +EV to it?
