I'm trying to look at every hand where I lost more than 10BB. I think this was okay, but I'd like a check.

Flop bet is way too big. Turn/river fine.

Edit: its full ring, I havent got a clue about FR. Maybe check flop?

Go to full ring forum.

going to the flop 3 ways, i'm checking.

if you bet, i think you have to fire a 2nd barrel since no one is folding a pair on the flop w/the top card paired.

Good catch. I hadn't noticed that. There's not much to draw to, so the pot bet isn't necessary.

I didn't realize this wasn't for full ring. Is this just 6max? Seems weird to have the main forums for a non-standard format.

Really? I hate shorthanded play. I play pretty laggy, so it doesn't help me to have everyone loosening up. I prefer docile full-ring.
