Tried to steal...flopped a monster...screwed it up?
My opponent in this hand had been limping in with a lot of garbage. I assumed he didn't have much, so I thought a solid raise would take it down preflop. With the blinds and antes and his call, I thought it was worth a shot to build my stack.

I'm not sure. I hoped that my check would make him think I tried to steal and whiffed. Then I thought maybe a big raise would look like another steal. I didn't think there was any way for him to put me on a 5. I guess he probably just didn't have anything and I wasn't going to make anything more. How would you guys recommend playing this flop? Being OOP made it tough for me to decide what to do. |
