Some Textbook folds....

[mtdoak]

Both hands are sans read (both cases they just sat down). I am trying to correct a big leak of calling in small pots when I am certain I am beat. Discuss.

Hand one.
flop check not good. Turn raise not good. Turn is wa/wb. Just call down. perhaps raise river.

Hand two

Wow you hate money.

How long have you been in the 10/20 SH?

Hand 1 - Against unknowns, bet the flop.

Hand 2 - I can't fold this.

Hand one, if I were BB I'd 3-bet my bluff for sure, since I'd be thinking surely he can't have an ace, he didn't bet the flop. Hope that answers both questions [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Bet the flop in hand 1. Given that you didn't, just call down and bet if checked to.

Hand 2. I call down.

Considering that you raise-folded the first hand with top pair okay kicker, why would you immediately fold to the exact same raise in the second hand. You are getting 3-1 on a call down and nothing about their play suggests the guy doesn't have Ac6c - or even ATo.

Your thinking in these two hands seems mixed-up...
