Final Pot: 9.75 BB

I had been at the table for less than one orbit, so no reads. Should I have raised the flop?

You played it fine. No reason to raise that flop. You raise the turn, which has twice as much money in a bet. That is the right move.

I think this is a standard good play. You have the nuts on the flop and there is no reason to raise there with UTG betting into you. Well played.

[TripleH68]

I suggest you go back in time and post a new first hand.

You have a monster and it's heads up. Definitely wait for the turn.

I actually like the advice above...pick hands where you're really not sure about an iffy situation. That's where I've gotten the most value posting here. Squeezing a 1-2 bets out of top set doesn't gain you much.

This is one of those rare instances in micros where a slowplay is fine on the flop. The pot is small, his odds to draw out on you are mega-slim, and you have only 1 opponent. Looks good.

Sometimes I just raise the flop. Your line is far from terrible. other than that, ^^.

[SoftcoreRevolt]

Raise the flop if he's LAGgy, with no reads this is fine.

[ESKiMO-SiCKNE5S]

yeah flop, turn, its all the same here imo

you could get called then checked to and make 1SB less

you could get capped and bet in to and make a whole lot more
