Struggling with high PP\'s
I never quite seem to know how to properly play pocket pairs like J's and Q's. Heres an example of what i usually do.
Ipoker Lavender 0.01/0.02, hand converted by the iPoker Converter at Talking-Poker 9 (Button) Button ($2.77) 10<font color="red">Hero ($0.67) </font> 2 Seat 2 ($1.67) 3 Seat 3 ($2.05) 5 <font color="red">Seat 5 ($1.81) </font> 6 Seat 6 ($1.06) 7 Seat 7 ($1.50) Preflop: Hero is in seat 10 with J J Seat 3 raises to 0.08, Seat 5 calls 0.08, 1 fold, Seat 7 calls 0.08, 1 fold, Hero calls 0.07, 1 fold. Flop (0.34) 3 7 7 Hero moves all-in for 0.59, 1 fold, Seat 5 calls 0.59, 1 fold. Turn (1.52) K River (1.52) 9 Seat 5 shows K K Hero shows J J Seat 5 wins 1.52 with A fullhouse, King's and Seven's At first i thought i played it fine, and it was just unlucky. However the more i thought about it, the more i realised its properly poor play on my part. In this case all-in had to be done due to my stack size but even if i had $2 i still used to push all-in. I realised that the only people calling me are idiots with Air, or people who have me beaten. So i am wondering what size bet should i be looking at after the flop? In th above example what should i make my bet? Some with two over cards is about a 3-1 chance to hit on the turn or river arent they? Also - what should i do if the flop contains a A,K or Q check, or put in one c-bet? |
