only calling the flop sucks

[colonel81]

yeah i know i had raised the previous six or so and mixed it up normally i raise. more or less wondering about the turn

[derosnec]

sets, AK most of the time, overpairs some of the time. doubt he's doing this with top pair.

You should be raising here pre-flop. Bottom two pair is not a hand that I would slow play especially on this flop. As played I am going to fold the turn. There are a number of hands that have us crushed: TT, QQ, JJ, AK, maybe QJ but I doubt it. The hands we are currently beating, AA, KK, AQ, AJ, KQ all have at least 8 outs to draw out on us.

as played the turn looks like a call me bet, so jj+ AK, AQ, but you have outs, some equity, and position, maybe a turn call (to reevaluate river) is okay since you were not willing to commit with a flop raise

[Harry Fong]

Dont call the flop. Raise it up to $4.50 and put pressure on the flush and str8 draws.

[Knuckles]

I don't like a turn call here. You only have 4 outs if your behind and a hand like AA has 12 out against you. Even if your ahead your not ahead by much.

like i said fairly new was off by one in poker tracker database and just double checked villian his stats were 66/62/4. how bad does this change his range?

Write this down on a piece of paper 200 times.

"I will not open limp"

Villain has you crushed or you are a slight favorite at best and you put yourself in this position by not folding preflop.
