Default Re: 3/6- confusion vs technologic

It has a lot to do with metagame stuff tho. If tech has been calling a lot of flops and betting turns against sauce, he could decide to play a set this way cause he thinks it'll get sauce to put more money in.

Especially since tech is a nit, he's not gonna raise the flop for value a lot cause sauce knows tech is a nit, so he could lose value from like AT and AJ by raising the flop, but sauce could be convinced to put more moeny in on the turn.

I'm a lot spewier than tech is, and I'd just call this flop against sauce too. There's so many hands that sauce will just dump to a flop raise that it just seems smarter to try to build the pot on the turn.

Also, tech would just call any worse Ace to the turn c/r cause he's not getting value from anything worse by shoving. So he has to bluff catch on the river.

I mean, I'd prob stack off here in the heat of the moment, but looking at the hand now it seems really obvious that AK is not possibly the best hand.

Actually forget about metagame stuff, I think it's just poor practice to be raising a set on this flop. You have such a better chance of getting more money in on the turn than on the flop

dude i mean [censored] pot control over the whole realm of the concept. As in controlling the size of the pot to get his stack in. If he doesn't raise the flop he has no shot of getting his stack in.
