5/10 Pocket pair flops gutshot vs. PFR

[DMoogle]

Pretty standard hand. Is check-raising the flop better than check-calling then leading? Villain is ken the cow, kind of the tighter side of TAG, runs at 22%/15%/2.5/24%. We haven't played much together, if at all.

While I agree, what other lines do you suggest?

are you advocating c/c, c/c then make decision on river? It just makes the hand harder to play (albeit thats the line i usually take, mixed in with occasional c/r)

I try to save c/c then donk for stronger hands because people seem to raise that bet alot, because to any hand reader (like you said) it looks like something like 66..

[klownage]

lolol what are u trying to represent? 999?

[DMoogle]

What's a better line? Check-raising the flop?

[berserk]

[jsnipes28]

i dont see why u dont c/c flop then check turn

I suppose it's the small stakes player in me that hates giving free cards.

I really wouldn't worry too much about giving a free shot to someone's 6 outer here.
