River: Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (t3150, 1 player + 1 all-in - Main pot: t3150)


Results:
Final pot: t3150

No reads, I think this is the 4th hand or so.

Lately I've been getting in a lot of trouble early on when my 88-TT turns into an overpair on the flop when I'm the one calling PF raises and not initiating them myself.

So the pf raiser leads out 2/3 pot and I think to myself (hmmm, usually an overpair pots it or close to pot here) and I think this has to be a cont. bet with AK-AQ type of hands so I decide to push. Good, bad?

All comments appreciated.

I'd call the flop and see what happens on the turn.

I often lead this flop with t200. I fold if I get raised all-in and curse if I get called and turn is an overcard.

Why not bet if you are going to re-shove to a raise?

Bet flop and then play from there. I'm probably folding to a re-raise and checking the turn.
