Default Re: JT98ds vs set on flop

This may be a silly question, but what was the purpose of your re-raise out of position? For value? To take control of the hand and steal on the flop no matter what comes? To test if he has AAXX?

I prefer to keep the pot small oop unless I can get most of my chips in preflop with a great hand (there are other factors of course, but I am very careful OOP). Therefore, I would prefer to just call preflop here. NO ONE is going to fold to a pot-sized re-raise at the 0.10 level. Save your stack for a good flop. Anyone else agree here?

If the other raiser can't get away from AAXX and is aggressive, check raise him with a good flop.

If the other raiser can't get away from AAXX and is passive, bet into him with a good flop.

It really depends on the other raiser's tendencies.

With this flop, you should call with your wrap draw.
