Default Re: The Old Min-CheckRaise

I am not disagreeing with you, Jim. I was simply questioning his description of the strength of my hand.

The reason is that I usually see this min-CR more often on the turn, and usually after a firing a second barrel in position. I've found that it usually means a stronger holding on the flop when the raiser is OOP.

I do agreeing with pushing though, which is what I did. Is there really another play?

I'm the first one in the pot. 3x has been my standard raise in this situation and will continue to be.

If youre convinced theres no other play, I dont see the need to post the hand. I have no problem with pushing though. Ive done it in that exact spot lots of times.

So what happened?

villain probably flopped a flush and hero didn't improve.

Don't be too results-oriented. He happened to have the flush AND you happened to not suck out. That's the worst-case scenario.
