Default Re: HU rake considerations in split pot games

No one is folding a pair of Aces in the scenario you describe, especially in a game this small. If the rake is not maxed out, check behind. If the rake is maxed out and the other guy can't have a low, go ahead and bet.

There are times where you might want to bet a made low with a small chance at a scoop, say with a gut-shot. There, you might be laying $.50 to win $6 or something, and that might be worth it. Your opponent might not see it that way.
