Default I mean, what else do I do here?

I just sat down. I don't really have any other ideas but maybe there's a better standard line.


PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

MP ($40.95)
Hero ($48.25)
Button ($52.95)
SB ($26.45)
BB ($34.30)
UTG ($41.45)

Preflop: Hero is CO with A, K.
[color=#666666]2 folds</font>, [color=#CC3333]Hero raises to $2</font>, [color=#666666]2 folds</font>, BB calls $1.50.

Flop: ($4.25) 2, A, 9 [color=#0000FF](2 players)</font>
BB checks, [color=#CC3333]Hero bets $4</font>, [color=#CC3333]BB raises to $8</font>, [color=#CC3333]Hero raises to $46.25</font>, BB calls $24.30 (All-In).

Turn: ($82.80) 4 [color=#0000FF](2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

River: ($82.80) 3 [color=#0000FF](2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: $82.80

Also is there a way to make those lameass color bracket things not show up?

when you convert the hand make sure your format is "twoplustwo" instead of "FlopTurnRiver"

Why are you going to war with one pair on this board?

Against an unknown, I would just call the min-raise, lead a non-diamond turn and fold to a raise.

You gotta ask yourself, "What would a reasonable opponent call this bet with that I'm beating?"

I know it seems like you have a huge hand, but think about it...on this board you don't want to play a big pot.

call the flop bet and see a turn. unless he's terrible, your push will only be called by something crushing you.

Really? THis guy's sitting pretty short, so my first instinct is to assume he's bad. You really dont think he calls off with weaker aces thinking I'm semibluffing, or with a big diamond in the hole? Am I really out of my mind for expecting to be ahead here?

If a flush draw can play this way, don't we have to put more money in on the flop?

I [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] it. The little flop minraise on a monotone board means doodly-squat. My judgment may be impaired by my molten-hot hatred of shortstacks, but I'm pushing here exactly all the time. TPTK is teh nutz against shorties.
