AJo (Top Pair) With Monotone Board
I think I played this hand horribly. I was a little steamed at the time. MP3 is a loose player and I haven't seen him raise preflop or postflop; seemed to be a calling station.

My reasoning at the time (someone please correct me) was that if I bet the pot here and he calls with a club (hoping he doesn't have two of them and I think he would call with one of them) then he is probably going to call the next bet regardless with only $7.15 left and a $15.25 pot (assuming I bet $5 on the flop and he calls) on the turn so I figured I'd just push. I think what I should have done was bet the pot and if he calls judge what to do based on the turn card? I certaintly don't check this to this guy? I look forward to your criticism. |

Don't raise oop pf with AJ. The open push is so terrible it hurts to look at. Bet and shut down to any resistance

Re: AJo (Top Pair) With Monotone Board
Just bet $4.50-$4.75 on the flop. If the turn is a club then you can check/fold and save $8. Personally, this flop play is terrible. You are only getting called by better hands. Just make him chase his flush and if it hits then lay down your hand.
