Why is the flop so dangerous?

[/ QUOTE ]

because there are straight and flush draws out there, plus the possibility of 2 pair. there are a number of hands you are now only marginally ahead of therefore u cannot give them a good rice to draw.

PF is awful. min raise gives opponent good odds to outdraw you, gives away your hand, and fails to build a pot that u can get AI easily against hands u dominate.

the flop bet is miserable - make a proper bet and cut the implied odds so that if u r called your opponent is making a mistake. as played, it is u who is making the mistake.

there isn't much point in getting tricky at the micro stakes with AA/KK unless u know your opponent well, the majority of players are simply not observant enough for plays like that to be +ev. on a short stack with AA just make it $5 PF then shove the flop.... u will win most of the time
