Should you ever double an unknown? 100nl

[ama0330]

Villain is unknown and thats the point of this post. Is it ever correct to double here? I feel like he could fold a mid pair. Too optimistic?

Party Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.50/$1 Blinds - 5 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

SB: $119.36
BB: $132.98
Hero (UTG): $197.00
CO: $143.62
BTN: $94.00

Preflop: Hero is dealt 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (5 Players)
<font color="red">Hero raises to $4.00</font>, 3 folds, BB calls $3.00

Flop: ($8.50) 6 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
BB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $7.00</font>, BB calls $7.00

Turn: ($22.50) T (2 Players)
BB checks, Hero doubles?

My unfathomably vast experience doing this in SSNL has taught me a lesson. "No no no no no no no no no."

yeah it kinda seems like even tho it may be logically acceptable to put him on a PP and double, it just doesnt seem to be a profitable move. I check folded this time but does anyone ever do this at all?

Hard to say.

I predict the end for this hand if you dont tho: Turn-BB checks, hero checks. River=X BB PSB, hero folds.

If he's an unknown i guess this is how becomes a "known" when you fire again. Worth betting again for info in futre situations

I tend to double here 75% of the time versus damn near everyone as nobody ever folds to a cbet on a paired board these days. Not sure if this is a leak or not at SSNL, but I'd keep betting lots of made hands in my range, and lots of villains will peel a FD oop on the flop but give up on the turn to a 2nd barrel.

Snipes, I think you have alright reasoning, but this is party poker and the board didn't change much.

If the A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] fell, sure. However this turn card just put out another flush draw for villain to put you on. I typically shut down here. Random party poker villains are never folding a king to a 2nd barrel here, and a lot of monkeys might even call another one with pocket pairs too, and we certainly can't be sure they fold FDs regardless of odds. Check behind and hope for a free showdown or a deuce.
