Re: 1/2 Kings with hearts
Why shove bottomset? If we shove, a flush calls and all other hands fold. What about checking here, hoping for a bet/semibluff by villain with something like lower set or TP and call then?
Just interested... |

You miss a ton of value because top pair will very rarely bet. Check-calling ensures that you will lose the maximum when behind and win the minimum when ahead. At least by shoving you also win the maximum when ahead. |
