Default Re: The hardest spot in micro stakes poker? JJ from the SB

[ QUOTE ]
checking this flop is horrible as i have said before because

A) Given LP's wide range if he checks behind he may hit a 2-8 outer of whatever, which is not something u can allow.

[/ QUOTE ]

if checking this flop allows our villain (with 2-8 outs on the flop) to try and extract value from our seemingly weak range, then it is definitely something you CAN allow.

[ QUOTE ]
B) If he raises he has an ace like 90% of the time and u can fold knowing your beat.

[/ QUOTE ]

where do you get this figure? an observant opponent will realize that you're betting your entire pf3b range on this flop and profitably raise with a much wider range than an A.

[ QUOTE ]
C) if he calls flop bet you can assign a range and play turn based on your reads


checking flop is scared poker and it is very very bad.

[/ QUOTE ]

if you're never checking this flop (and vice versa, never betting), you're going to be extremely exploitable. but hey, this is 50nl, right? (sarcasm of course)
