So to be sure that I did understand well : you push 1480 in a pot of 80. I like it a lot, obviously.

As we have learned from my QQ-thread, earlygame is not about accumulating chips.
It's about pushing flops to win small pots.

Can we go back to the initial question ?

[Scotty_12]

I go pot-pot-push here also. The turn was a pretty good card, something like a J or Q would have bene harmless too, but I dont see how you cant take this line

[BicVicTheQuick]

push flop/turn is obviously bad, IMO.

I like your flop/turn line but I don't like your river push. The 9 is a semi-scary card as it completes a st8 for 76 (something that could easily be in their range). I can't see an overpair playing like this so what are we beating here??

Looks good Rex.

You shouldn't be called by anything you are beating on the river. Sure, a bad player may have limped AA or KK and pay you but you can't count on that. I would play the same way but check and call one bet on the river.

[ger664]

Rex u must be runnig bad. This is so standard IMO.
Maybe overbetting the flop to build a bigger pot for the turn. Once that turn comes get as much as possible from drawing hands that will most likely fold to a min-bet on the river when they have totally missed.
