Default Re: Donkey Kick Over Past Bad Beats?

Pushing this flop for fear of being outdrawn is just like calling a big raise preflop with 84o, because you've been flopping a lot of straights lateley with that hand. It's retarded.

Basically, the bet you should make on this flop, is the largest amount you believe weaker hands are likely to call. Usually, this is something like a pot sized bet. My preference would be t300.

In a $4 tournament pushing is actually +EV, because you'll often get called if one of the villains has a jack. Still, if you bet pot, and someone calls you with a draw, you are still making money. This will also set the pot size up niceley for a push on the turn.
