So I was playing with 2+2ers

[bellatrix]

All of the players are your typical 2+2ers... Except, SB, that guy is an idiot who contends that online poker is rigged. Oh, wait that leaves 3 2+2ers and 1 idiot.

Please tell me where I screwed up...

[Bulletproof Monk]

flop raise wouldnt be terrible, but honestly i dont mind any of this.

i fold the river with a player behind.

What is BB 2+2er coldcalling 3 with? Oh, it's a 4-handed game and they're probably donking around. Raise the flop because top pair is the nuts in this type of game.

[bellatrix]

Well, my thoughts at the time (and I was multitasking horribly, so I'm surprised that I had any thoughts), where that that gives away, that I have an Ace and I wouldn't get any action, plus if somebody has an Ace, that somebody has a better kicker maybe. It was 4-handed.

On the river, with a player behind am I not better off raising this with a possibility he will fold? Well scratch that, SB was an idiot. But if he was a half thinking player, it would be +EV to raise and hope BB is bluffing?

is this a "2+2 game" ... or a game with a number of 2+2ers ... big difference

if a "2+2 game" ... pfft - cap the flop with 2nd or middle pair on that board

if the other ... well - you table selection pretty much sucks [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I don't know. That's a game dynamics play. Do you think the half-thinking idiot will fold a flush for 8 cents? Probably not.

I don't mind a call to make BB show down his whatever. Folding isn't bad, either, but with the bloated pot because of the 4-handed preflop cap, I'm don't mind looking him up even though he's going to have a flush pretty often.

That would be "2+2 game" with an idiot stopping by.

[Smurph64]

The flop looks like a screw up to me. I would raise.
