Default Re: I play turned 2pair passively

My first instinct was to raise either turn or river.

Your read on Button is that he is ~semiloose/passive/weak. This leads me to think that there could be value in keeping him in, because we probably are ahead of him.

BB looks like to have some sort of made hand, either 8 or K, on the flop. Or he hit an OESD. Him leading the turn makes the draw less likely.

The turn brings a FD but I'm not too worried about that.

I think your line looks ok.

Raising the turn for protection vs SD or FD and value could be good too. We cannot be sure if the weak button stays in if we call but I guess we can expect him to fold most of the time. As BB is unknown your line might still be the safe bet.


EDIT: I still suck at short-handed.. didn't check the pot size... [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] getting over 10BB -> should have trusted my gut and go for the raise all the time.
