Default Re: 25NL FR AJ makes top set on flop...but faces an all-in on turn...

OK...I appreciate the comments...

So a good raise size is $1-$1.50? I would think alot of ppl would call that raise with any pp...and would be getting good implied odds to do so.

With a .25 blind 1 should be fine. Standard raise is 4xbb + 1 for each limper. And yes people will generally call with any pocket pair and will be getting good implied odds to do so if you can't ever fold later in the hand.

As for this hand I would love getting it all-in here. You'll win a ridiculous majority oif the time.

They are only getting good implied odds if you pay off. Are you going to stack off here with A J on any flop other then one like this? If not then they aren't getting good implied odds.

AJ like all tp hands are ones want to play a small pot with, I raise to 8x bb will make that impossible.

I certainly appreciate this advice. Now its making sense to me, along with the smaller raising suggestion. Looking back now on this hand, this seems the better option.

Though I cant see any way to lay this down after that flop...

BTW, he had 22... [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Lesson learned. Thanks

This is one of the easiest calls in poker. Snap call and pump fist.
