Re: 77
I've been focusing on not making these call downs of late.
Even if you are ahead now, all his c/r'ing hands have 14outs. If you're behind, you have 2. And you've got to admit that this is a powerhouse line. Especially at 2/4.

Re: 77
I hate this flop raise. I mean think about it. What is the villain gonna put you on if you just call the flop? The answer is probably nothing. The villain will probably assume youre calling with some kind of 6 outdraw that will fold the turn unimproved. So what does this mean? This means that if you just call the flop, the villain will be betting his full range on the turn which is exactly what you want! Why stunt this money making process with a flop raise? And honestly, if that turn check/raise line is difficult for you to handle against this particular opponent, then your flop raise goes from bad to terrible.

Those ones where we post and it's fold or call down and nobody is really sure. In this case I think it's best to call down, as this spot is better than a bunch of those other ones. And while villain DOES have a bunch of outs - we have to make a stand sooner or later.
