I should fold pre-flop, but I'd like to focus on the flop and turn. On the flop I bet to protect my hand. Since open-ended straight and flush draws aren't going to fold here, I should have checked. Then I reraise for value, since I think I have the best hand. When she 4-bets, I think she has either a straight, a combination of a open-ended and flush draw, or trips. So I call here. On the turn, I think it's more likely she has a straight or draw, so I raise. When she 3-bets, I'm affraid for a higher full house, so I call it down.

Preflop is good. Getting 7:1 with morons you should play a lot of hands unless BB is erally aggressive preflop.


Against an idiot I think I cap the turn. He is playing T7 and 66 like this. Possibly even 87 or T8

i'd guess you can get slightly more money in the pot on average by c/r'ing the flop.

I cap the turn, and bet/call the river. PF is fine. I usually just bet this flop as well.
