Default Re: 10/20 Horse on Stars - CR or Call with Wheel on Flop?

Should I raise now or wait for the turn to rasie?

[/ QUOTE ]Mcpst17 - It's not an easy question for me to answer without knowing your opponents. I would have bet the flop, hoping for a raise behind me, rather than trying for a check-raise.

I personally have an aversion to check-raising, except as a defensive tactic, that's hard to explain or defend. Somehow it would change the amicability of any game I was in. I want to have a good time and I want everyone else to have a good time too. Maybe that's silly of me.

At any rate, at this point either calling and waiting for the turn to make your move or immediately check-raising seem similar. You're not going to make much more on the hand one way or the other. Whether to raise or not has as much to do with the way you play some other hands as this one.
