what's the plan if i do this

Check the flop and fold to any bet? If nobody bets and the turn comes down a 2c, do you bet it then? I'd prolly make the same play and fold to a raise.

i would check and fold to a decent button bet without reads, i f he checks and the turn is a blank then id bet it just like he did

To those saying "standard," shouldn't the preflop reraise be larger because it's an OOP "squeeze."

Dan Bitel · #9 02-09-2007, 08:07 AM

yeah...more preflop

plan shld be check flop, call a turn bet and see what happens on the river

biggest thing ive learned in my last month of poker is how important it is to make ur preflop reraises larger when OOP. Defines hands more, cuts down on implied odds, etc...

It sounds like not a big deal, but i swear an extra $5 preflop makes a difference in calling ranges when initial raiser has positon.
